HadCRU_MLE_v1.0_gridded_climatology

Calvert, Bruce T. T.

Dataset
Summary
HadCRU_MLE_v1.0_gridded_climatology is a mean surface temperature climatology for each calendar month and for each 5° latitude by 5° longitude grid cell of the Earth. The temperature climatology corresponds to the 1961-1990 reference period. Caution is advised when interpreting this temperature climatology since the source datasets used for temperature climatologies do not correspond perfectly with the source datasets used for temperature anomalies.
The maximum likelihood estimation approach allows for the estimated surface temperature climatology to be temporally and spatially complete for each calendar month and for the entire surface of the Earth.

Description
The quality of HadCRU_MLE_v1.0_gridded_climatology has been approved by Bruce T. T. Calvert on November 30, 2020. HadCRU_MLE_v1.0_gridded_climatology is a further derived product (classifying as a level 4 data processing level) derived from various source datasets, including sea ice coverage of HadISST2, land mask data of OSTIA, the surface temperature climatology of Jones et al. (1999), the sea surface temperature climatology of HadSST3, and surface elevation data of GMTED2010. These source datasets either have had extensive quality control or are themselves further derived products based on source datasets that have had extensive quality control.
Description
Due to the maximum likelihood estimation approach used, the estimated surface temperature climatology is temporally and spatially complete for each calendar month and for the entire surface of the Earth. As a result, there are no missing values in the dataset.
