Description

This dataset contains satellite rainfall data for eight major cities in the Sirba River Basin, Burkina Faso, derived from two products: the CHIRPS model and the TAMSAT model. The two zip archives, named according to the reference model, contain within them 8 folders, one for each city investigated. Each folder contains within it a file (nameofthecityMODEL_19832023).xlsx with the 40-year rainfall series and four folders (indices, log, plots, trend) containing the computations obtained using RClimdex software to calculate ETCCDI rainfall climate indices. The data presented can be used for future insights and researches on the watershed.
