Processed ERA5, IMERG and TRMM PR/GPM DPR precipitation data for Nicolas & Boos - "Understanding the spatiotemporal variability of tropical orographic rainfall using convective plume buoyancy."

<p>The dataset contains processed data from large datasets that are freely available online.&nbsp;<br>All data cover the period 01/2001 - 12/2020. The file names describe the months &amp; region that each file contains. Variable codes for ERA5 data (all files starting in e5.) are:</p><p>&nbsp;- 228_246_100u : 100m u-wind<br>&nbsp;- 228_247_100v : 100m v-wind<br>&nbsp;- qL : 900-600hPa averaged specific humidity<br>&nbsp;- thetaeb : surface - 900hPa averaged equivalent potential temperature<br>&nbsp;- thetaeL : 900-600hPa averaged equivalent potential temperature<br>&nbsp;- thetaeLstar : 900-600hPa averaged saturation equivalent potential temperature<br>&nbsp;- tL : 900-600hPa averaged temperature<br>&nbsp;- uBL : surface - 900hPa averaged u wind<br>&nbsp;- vBL : surface - 900hPa averaged v wind<br>&nbsp;- 128_034_sstk : sea surface temperature<br>&nbsp;- 162_071_viwve : eastward component of vertically integrated water vapor transport<br>&nbsp;- 162_072_viwvn : northward component of vertically integrated water vapor transport</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
