MIDAS: Global Surface Climate Values

The global surface climate values data contain monthly and annual surface climatological averages and met element check values for surface CLIMAT reports. The message contains measurements meteorological parameters; the count of months of actual data, mean, standard deviation, median, and skewness of the record are all given for a specified parameter. The data span a maximum of 30 year period ending in December 1990 and December 2000.
