High spatial resolution bioclimatic variables of Sardinia
Description
We generated a high-resolution suite of 19 bioclimatic variables of Sardinia of the suite of the original coarse-grain bioclimatic variables proposed by WorldClim 2: all rasters are provided at roughly 1.69 arcsec (40 m cell size) resolution and in the WGS84 geographic coordinate system (EPSG code of 4326). GeoTIFF rasters of all 19 bioclimatic variables of Sardinia (Italy) are included. Metadata files include file name, thumbnail, tags and description for all rasters. We calculated the suite of 19 bioclimatic variables using a high-resolution monthly climatologies of temperature and precipitation of Sardinia, based on long-term climate time series and local topography.
