These are calculated on high-resolution (0.5x0.5 degree) grids, which are based on an archive of monthly mean temperatures provided by more than 4000 weather stations distributed around the world. They allow variations in climate to be studied, and include variables such as cloud cover, diurnal temperature range, frost day frequency, precipitation, daily mean temperature, monthly average daily maximum temperature, vapour pressure, Potential Evapo-transpiration and wet day frequency. At present, the BADC holds the latest Time Series data generated by CRU for the period 1901-2017. Those are available as CRU TS 3.26 data. The BADC also holds the preliminary CRU TS3.00 datasets for the period 1901-2006 as well as the subsequent CRU TS 3.10, 3.20, 3.21, 3.22, 3.23, 3.24 and CRU TS 3.25 datasets for the period 1901-2016. The CRU TS data are monthly gridded fields based on daily values -hence the ASCII and netcdf files both contain monthly mean values for the various parameters.
