The Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN) dataset provides monthly temperature, precipitation, sea-level pressure, and station-pressure data from thousands of meteorological stations worldwide. Compiled from national, regional, and global collections, it contains records from approximately 6000 temperature stations, 7500 precipitation stations, and 1800 stations for each pressure type. This dataset serves as a foundational baseline for monitoring climate and detecting long-term change.
License is listed as 'other-license-specified' but no specific license is provided. The dataset's temporal coverage ends in 1990, but update timestamps conflict, suggesting potential metadata issues.
