Description
This dataset is a compilation of in situ daily and hourly meteorological observations for the former USSR initially obtained within the framework of several joint projects of All-Russian Research Institute for Hydrometeorological Information-World Data Center of the Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring, Obninsk, Russian Federation, and (former) NOAA National Climatic Data Center, Asheville, North Carolina. The data in this archive have been compiled from several sources beginning is 1891, with Russian data available to 2000, but other newly independent states data only to 1991. Homogenization and bias-correction are done only when appropriate metadata and supplementary synoptic information are available.
