weather: Ten years of daily weather data

In VFS: Vegetated Filter Strip and Erosion Model

Description

The VFS offers the capability of importing weather data from the GHCN, either from local files or the online repository, but this import is slow, so the result of the import is saved as an R object for those examples that need it.

The original GHCN file has many more columns.

Usage

data("weather")

Format

A data frame with 3653 observations on the following 8 variables.

YEAR

a numeric vector

MONTH

a numeric vector

DAY

a numeric vector

PRCP.VALUE

a numeric vector

SNOW.VALUE

SNWD.VALUE

TMAX.VALUE

TMIN.VALUE

Source
