Overview:
ERA5-Land is a reanalysis dataset providing a consistent view of the evolution of land variables over several decades at an enhanced resolution compared to ERA5. ERA5-Land has been produced by replaying the land component of the ECMWF ERA5 climate reanalysis. Reanalysis combines model data with observations from across the world into a globally complete and consistent dataset using the laws of physics. Reanalysis produces data that goes several decades back in time, providing an accurate description of the climate of the past.
Air temperature (2 m):
Temperature of air at 2m above the surface of land, sea or in-land waters. 2m temperature is calculated by interpolating between the lowest model level and the Earth's surface, taking account of the atmospheric conditions.
The spatially enhanced daily ERA5-Land data has been aggregated on a weekly basis starting from Saturday for the time period 2016 - 2020.
Data available is the weekly average of daily averages, the weekly minimum of daily minima and the weekly maximum of daily maxima of air temperature (2 m).
File naming:
Average of daily average: era5_land_t2m_avg_weekly_YYYY_MM_DD.tif
Max of daily max: era5_land_t2m_max_weekly_YYYY_MM_DD.tif
Min of daily min: era5_land_t2m_min_weekly_YYYY_MM_DD.tif
The date in the file name determines the start day of the week (Saturday).
Values are °C * 10. Example: Value 44 = 4.4 °C
The QML or SLD style files can be used for visualization of the temperature layers.
