In ClimClass: Climate Classification According to Several Indices

 #' Data set of Trentino climate
#'
#' A group of datasets used consistently throughout the ClimClass manual and examples. 
#' It is used as reference definition of the climate for the Trentino region, Italy. 
#' It includes monthly series of temperature and precipitation, and reference tables for 
#' the definition of aridity and continentality/oceanicity
#' 
#' Series like "Txxxx" were supplied by the Autonomous Province of Trento - Meteotrentino (I). 
#' Series like "FEMxx" were supplied by Fondazione Edmund Mach, San Michele all'Adige (I).
