ESA Water Vapour Climate Change Initiative (Water_Vapour_cci): Total Column Water Vapour daily gridded data over land at 0.5 degree resolution, version 3.2

This dataset consists of daily total column water vapour (TCWV) over land, at a 0.5 degree resolution, observed by various satellite instruments. It has been produced by the European Space Agency Water Vapour Climate Change Initiative (Water_Vapour_cci), and forms part of their TCVW over land Climate Data Record -1 (TCWV-land (CDR-1).

This version of the data is v3.2. This is an updated dataset, which fixes an issue with the filtering of the v3.1 data.
