        <gco:CharacterString>This is the 1.0.0.2018f version of the HadISDH (Integrated Surface Database Humidity) marine data and the first version to be produced. These data are provided by the Met Office Hadley Centre. This version spans 1/1/1973 to 31/12/2018.

The data are monthly gridded (5 degree by 5 degree) fields. Products are available for temperature and six humidity variables: specific humidity (q), relative humidity (RH), dew point temperature (Td), wet bulb temperature (Tw), vapour pressure (e), dew point depression (DPD). Data are provided in NetCDF format.

To keep informed about updates, news and announcements follow the HadOBS team on twitter @metofficeHadOBS.

For more detailed information e.g bug fixes, routine updates and other exploratory analysis, see the HadISDH blog: http://hadisdh.blogspot.co.uk/
