Description

This metadata record describes the average of annual maximum duration of consecutive dry and wet days per event, where precipitation totals are 0 or equal and exceeds 1 millimeters respectively, during the 30-year period 1981 – 2010 for the conterminous United States. A wet event is defined as a period when the number of consecutive days with precipitation equals or exceeds 1 millimeter. A dry event is defined as a period when the number of consecutive days with precipitation equals 0 millimeters. The source data was produced and acquired from DAYMET (2018) and is presented here as a 1-kilometer resolution GeoTIFF file.
