ukcp09: Gridded Datasets of Monthly values - Mean wind speed (knots)
ukcp09-Gridded datasets based on surface observations have been generated for a range of climatic variables. The primary purpose of this data resource is to encourage and facilitate research into climate change impacts and adaptation. This data set includes monthly ukcp09-Gridded datasets at 5 x 5 km resolution. A grid for each month covering the whole of the UK, downloadable in 10-year blocks. The format of the grid text files is the same as that used by ESRI GIS software (e.g. ArcView) to impo
