Climate Data Rescue: Digitisation of 5 meteorological variables recorded at Glenam, Clonmel Station (WSI : 0-372-7-10112) Tipperary between 1867-1911, Version 2

DOI

Climate data from Glenam, Clonmel Station (WSI : 0-372-7-10112) located in county Tipperary, Ireland has been recently rescued and digitised. Meteorological journals obtained from Met Éireann archives were scanned to digital images using a Metis EDS professional digital scanner. The journals contained 45 years of daily meteorological observations from 1867 – 1911 (Maximum, Minimum and Dry Bulb Temperature, Pressure and Rainfall). All ~80,000 values were transcribed by 15 MSc Climate Change students based out of the Irish Climate Analysis and Research UnitS (ICARUS) at Maynooth University, Ireland. The newly digitised datasets provide a near continuous daily record of several variables, helping to extend Ireland's historical meteorological records.

This is version 2 of the original dataset doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.988030 including flags and additional data points.
