Description
This dataset contains time-series of hourly climate constructed by merging records from various meteorological stations in and near Gothenburg, Sweden.
The variables included are:
- Central European Time (UTC+1)
- Air temperature (degC).
- Average wind speed (m/s)
- Average wind direction (deg true)
- Relative humidity (%)
- Global radiation (short-wave radiation down on a horizontal surface, W/m/m).
- Diffuse radiation (diffuse short-wave radiation down on a horizontal surface, W/m/m).
The variables included are:
- Central European Time (UTC+1)
- Air temperature (degC).
- Average wind speed (m/s)
- Average wind direction (deg true)
- Relative humidity (%)
- Global radiation (short-wave radiation down on a horizontal surface, W/m/m).
- Diffuse radiation (diffuse short-wave radiation down on a horizontal surface, W/m/m).
- Mean sea-level pressure (hPa).
- Direct-beam short wave radiation (W/m/m) incident on a plane normal to the solar angle.
The dataset covers the period 1986-09-01 - 2020-12-31.
