UKGrsHP: a UK high-resolution gauge–radar–satellite merged hourly precipitation analysis dataset

Development and analysis of a 50-year high-resolution daily gridded precipitation dataset over Spain (Spain02)

In this paper we present a new publicly available high-resolution daily precipitation gridded dataset developed for peninsular Spain and the Balearic islands using 2756 quality-controlled stations (this dataset is referred to as Spain02). The grid has a regular 0.2 (aprox. 20km) horizontal resolution and spans the period from 1950 to 2003. Different interpolation methods were tested using a cro...

China's 1 km Merged Gauge, Radar and Satellite Experimental Precipitation Dataset

Based on high-density gauge precipitation observations, high-resolution weather radar quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) and seamless satellite-based precipitation estimates, a 1-km experimental gauge-radar-satellite merged precipitation dataset has been developed using the proposed local gauge correction (LGC) and optimal interpolation (OI) merging strategies. First, hourly precipitat...

Quality‐control of an hourly rainfall dataset and climatology of extremes for the UK

Sub-daily rainfall extremes may be associated with flash flooding, particularly in urban areas but, compared with extremes on daily timescales, have been relatively little studied in many regions. This paper describes a new, hourly rainfall dataset for the UK based on ∼1600 rain gauges from three different data sources. This includes tipping bucket rain gauge data from the UK Environment Agency...
