Climate hydrology and ecology research support system potential evapotranspiration dataset for Great Britain (1961-2015) [CHESS-PE]
(CHESS-PE)
THIS DATASET HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED. The latest version is Climate hydrology and ecology research support system potential evapotranspiration dataset for Great Britain (1961-2017) [CHESS-PE]
A bug was discovered in the code which produces PETI, and has been fixed for this release. We have also improved the file metadata, including the projection information.
