Dataset description

UKCP09 Regional values Annual averages - Summer (May-Oct) cold wave duration Long-term averages for the 1961-1990 climate baseline are also available for 14 administrative regions and 23 river basins. They have been produced for all the monthly and annual variables, apart from mean wind speed, days of sleet/snow falling, and days of snow lying, for which data start after 1961. Each regional value is an average of the 5 x 5 km grid cell values that fall within it. The datasets are provided as space-delimited text files. The datasets have been created with financial support from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and they are being promoted by the UK Climate Impacts Programme (UKCIP) as part of the UK Climate Projections (UKCP09). http://ukclimateprojections.defra.gov.uk/content/view/12/689/. The data files are obtained by clicking on the links in the table below. Each text file contains values of the 1961-1990 baseline average for each administrative region and for each river basin. Monthly variables have 12 values for each region (one for each month) whereas annual variables have just one value (the annual average).

Questions before production use

Practical answers on evaluation, licensing, freshness, versioning and support.

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.
Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.
Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.
Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
