The precipitation subset of this dataset is still the latest version available.** The Global Historical Climatology Network Monthly (GHCN-M) Version 2 dataset created by the NCDC contains historical temperature, precipitation, and pressure data for thousands of land stations worldwide. The period of record varies from station to station, with several thousand extending back to 1950 and several hundred being updated monthly. Both historical and near-real-time GHCN-M data undergo rigorous quality assurance reviews. These reviews include pre-processing checks on source data, time series checks that identify spurious changes in the mean and variance, spatial comparisons that verify the accuracy of the climatological mean and the seasonal cycle, and neighbor checks that identify outliers from both a temporal and a spatial perspective. Only one file for the temperature data is available from the archive (file is for period of record ending in 2011), but precipitation data has been archived daily since 2012.\r\n \r\n \r\n To monitor long-term trends in temperature and precipitation.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce\r\n \r\n \r\n GHCN-M Product Team\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n +1 (828) 271-4800\r\n \r\n \r\n +1 (828) 271-4876\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 151 Patton Avenue\r\n \r\n \r\n Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468\r\n \r\n \r\n Asheville\r\n \r\n \r\n NC\r\n \r\n \r\n 28801-5001\r\n \r\n \r\n USA\r\n \r\n \r\n ncdc.ghcnm@noaa.gov\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n pointOfContact\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information\r\n \r\n \r\n Customer Engagement Branch\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 1-828-271-4800\r\n \r\n \r\n 1-828-271-4876\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 151 Patton Avenue\r\n \r\n \r\n Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468\r\n \r\n \r\n Asheville\r\n \r\n \r\n NC\r\n \r\n \r\n 28801-5001\r\n \r\n \r\n USA\r\n \r\n \r\n ncei.orders@noaa.gov\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n https://www.ncei.noaa.gov\r\n \r\n \r\n HTTPS\r\n \r\n \r\n Web Browser\r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)\r\n \r\n \r\n NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information.\r\n \r\n \r\n information\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n pointOfContact\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n daily\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Sea Level Pressure\r\n \r\n \r\n Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature > Air Temperature\r\n \r\n \r\n Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature\r\n \r\n \r\n Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature > Maximum/Minimum Temperature\r\n \r\n \r\n Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Precipitation Amount\r\n \r\n \r\n theme\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 2018\r\n \r\n \r\n revision\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Version 8.6\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords\r\n \r\n \r\n HTTPS\r\n \r\n \r\n Web Browser\r\n \r\n \r\n Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords\r\n \r\n \r\n The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.

GHCN-Monthly Version 2 currently provides precipitation data that is available from 20,590 stations and sea level pressure data for 2,668 stations. The [now superseded] temperature product contains mean temperature data for 7,280 stations and maximum/minimum temperature data for 4,966 stations (available until 2011). All stations have at least 10 years of data. The archive also contains homogeneity-adjusted data for a subset of this network (5,206 mean temperature stations and 3,647 maximum/minimum temperature stations). The homogeneity-adjusted network is somewhat smaller because at least 20 years of data were required to compute reliable discontinuity adjustments and the homogeneity of some isolated stations could not be adequately assessed.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n In 2011, methodologies to produce the temperature values were updated and released as GHCN-Monthly Version 3. For the present, precipitation values are still available as Version 2.\r\n \r\n \r\n 2011-01-01T00:00:00\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n repository\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA created the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) by merging NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC), and National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC), including the National Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC), per the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015, Public Law 113-235.

Users should not use this version except in rare cases (e.g., when reproducing previous studies that used this version). The precipitation subset of this dataset is still the latest version available.** The Global Historical Climatology Network Monthly (GHCN-M) Version 2 dataset created by the NCDC contains historical temperature, precipitation, and pressure data for thousands of land stations worldwide. The period of record varies from station to station, with several thousand extending back to 1950 and several hundred being updated monthly. Both historical and near-real-time GHCN-M data undergo rigorous quality assurance reviews. These reviews include pre-processing checks on source data, time series checks that identify spurious changes in the mean and variance, spatial comparisons that verify the accuracy of the climatological mean and the seasonal cycle, and neighbor checks that identify outliers from both a temporal and a spatial perspective. Only one file for the temperature data is available from the archive (file is for period of record ending in 2011), but precipitation data has been archived daily since 2012.","distribution":[{"@type":"dcat:Distribution","describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"Landing page for the dataset.","downloadURL":"https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/metadata/geoportal/rest/metadata/item/gov.noaa.ncdc:C00835/html","mediaType":"placeholder/value","title":"NCEI Dataset Landing Page"},{"@type":"dcat:Distribution","describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"Access to the data via FTP.
