WorldClimis
a set of global climate layers (climate grids) with a spatial
resolution of about 1 square kilometer. The data can be used for
mapping and spatial modeling in a GIS or with other computer
programs.
该数据的最大空间分辨率是30
arc-seconds resolution(1km分辨率栅格数据),其他的还有10minutes(20km分辨率),
5minutes(10km分辨率), 2.5minutes(5km分辨率)。
数据包括平均温度(Mean
Temperature)、最小温度(Minimum
temperature)、最大温度(Maximum
temperature)、降水量(Precipitation)、高程(Altitude)和生物气候(Bioclim)。数据提供两种格式下载:GeoTiff和ArcGIS
BIL。数据格式说明见:Data
format。
BIO1 = Annual Mean Temperature
BIO2 = Mean Diurnal Range (Mean of monthly (max temp - min
temp))
BIO3 = Isothermality(BIO2/BIO7) (* 100)
BIO4 = Temperature Seasonality(standard deviation *100)
BIO5 = Max Temperature of Warmest Month
BIO6 =
