Climate stations – Homogeneous data series
Homogeneous series of climate measurements reflect an unbiased picture of the climatic development and represent the basis for research on climate change: Temperature, precipitation, wind, sunshine, humidity, radiation and pressure – per station – daily ('d'), monthly ('m') and yearly ('y') – from the current year up to yesterday ('recent'), since the beginning of the measurement ('historical'). If you require monthly or yearly values, we strongly recommend that you download the corresponding resolution.
