I don't think you'll have much luck finding radiation data at those spatial and temporal resolutions.
For observed data, the best resolution that I know of is 32km and only for North America (http://dss.ucar.edu/pub/narr/). The spatial resolutions of most historical global datasets are measured in degrees, not kilometers. The National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) probably has some pretty good data, but I don't believe they have those freely available. -Phil ________________________________ From: Jonathan Greenberg <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2011 4:04 PM Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Best source for gridded radiation data? Folks: I'm trying to hunt down daily or monthly gridded radiation data at 4km or better resolution for North America (and, preferably, the world). At least a 10 year record would be preferable (the longer the better). What products would you all suggest (and why?) Any responses I get I'll summarize and repost. Thanks! --j -- Jonathan A.
