Hourly estimates of climate variables for Greece, 2017-2018

<p>Raster of hourly estimates of climate variables for Greece, 2017-2018. The estimates, which form the ERA5 Reanalysis data, are based on vast amounts of historical observations. From <a href="https://www.ecmwf.int/">ECMWF</a> through the Copernicus Climate Change Service. Prepared by <a href="https://www.athenarc.gr/">Athena Research Center</a> for use in the <a href="https://www.i4sea.eu/">i4SEA project</a>.</p> <p>The data was downloaded from <a href="https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/reanalysis-era5-single-levels?tab=overview">ERA5 hourly data on single levels from 1979 to present</a> on May 16, 2019. It covers the years 2017-2018 and a rectangular region encompassing Greece. The climate variables contained are:</p> <ul> <li>10m u-component of wind (10u)</li> <li>10m v-component of wind (10v)</li> <li>2m dewpoint temperature (2d)</li> <li>2m temperature (2t)</li> <li>Mean sea level pressure (msl)</li> <li>Mean wave direction (mwd)</li> <li>Mean wave period (mwp)</li> <li>Sea surface temperature (sst)</li> <li>Significant height of combined wind waves and swell (swh)</li> <li>Surface pressure (sp)</li> <li>Total precipitation (tp)</li> </ul> <p>Generated using Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2019.
