Total number of rain-days (days with P > 1 mm) - GAEZ v4 (Global - about 9 km)
Total number of rain days (days with P > 1 mm) dataset at about 9 km resolution at the equator, using different climate data source and based on different Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) according to the time period as follows:
- climate data source CRUTS32 based on historical data for the time period 1981-2010;
- climate data source ENSEMBLE based on the Representative Concentration Pathway RCP8.5 for time periods 2041-2070 and 2071-2100.
The Total number of rain days dataset is part of the GAEZ v4 Theme 2 Agro-climatic Resources, Moisture Regime sub-theme.
The GAEZ analysis uses daily data of precipitation. This allows the computation of various statistics, including the number of rain-days in a year, here defined as days with precipitation P ≥ 1 mm.
For additional information, please refer to the GAEZ v4 Model Documentation.
