This dataset is available under the terms of the Open Government Licence
By accessing or using this dataset, you agree to the terms of the relevant licence agreement(s). You will ensure that this dataset is cited in any publication that describes research in which the data have been used.
The data comprise high resolution climate measurements including temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, wind gust speed, wind direction and dew point measured in an open space in proximity to a forest fragment close to Sirsi, Western Ghats, India in 2021 and 2022.
The data provide background information used to determine the safety margins of Indian tropical forests to elevated temperatures and dry conditions.
Please see related data for information on leaf temperature, soil moisture, and growth, hydraulic, thermal and photosynthetic traits for a representative set of plant species.

Provenance & quality
A WatchDog climate monitoring station was installed in an open space in proximity to a forest fragment where all other measurements were made. The relative humidity sensor developed an offset of approximately 5 % in autumn 2021. We corrected the offset applying a low pass filter to daily maxima (occurring during night) and added the difference to 100 % relative humidity.
