Potential evapotranspiration derived from HadUK-Grid gridded climate observations 1969-2020 (Hydro-PE HadUK-Grid)

[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. Gridded potential evapotranspiration calculated from HadUK-Grid gridded observed meteorological data at 1 km resolution over the United Kingdom for the years 1969-2020. This dataset contains two potential evapotranspiration variables: daily total potential evapotranspiration (PET; kg m-2 d-1) and daily total potential evapotranspiration with interception correction (PETI; kg m-2 d-1). The units kg m-2 d-1 are equivalent to mm d-1. The data are provided in gridded netCDF files. There is one file for each variable, for each calendar month. These data were generated as part of NERC grant NE/S017380/1 (Hydro-JULES: Next generation land surface and hydrological prediction.) Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/470d9bf9-8c82-487c-956e-f15f9d8aac64

Statement

This dataset was derived from the HadUK-Grid gridded observed meteorological dataset v1.0.3.0 at 1 km resolution over the United Kingdom for the years 1969-2020 ( https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/4dc8450d889a491ebb20e724debe2dfb). HadUK-Grid is a gridded dataset derived from observed meteorological station data. The daily total potential evapotranspiration (PET; kg m-2 d-1) was calculated using the Penman-Monteith equation parameterised for a well-watered grass surface. The daily total potential evapotranspiration with interception correction (PETI; kg m-2 d-1), was calculated as PET then a correction added for interception by a grass canopy on days with non-zero precipitation. The HadUK-Grid meteorological variables used were: daily maximum and minimum air temperature at 1.5 m (°C), daily precipitation (mm d-1), monthly mean water vapour pressure (hPa), monthly mean sea level pressure (hPa), monthly total sunshine hours (hours) and monthly mean wind speed at 10 m (m s-1). Other variables used were the surface elevation (m) and Ångström coefficients a, b and c. A description of the methodology is available in the supporting documentation.
