Monthly Resolution

1. Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S):

• ERA5-Land Monthly Averaged Data (1950–Present)
• ERA5 Monthly Averaged Data on Single Levels (1940–Present)

Daily Resolution

• ERA5-Land post-processed daily statistics from 1950 to present
• ERA5 post-processed daily statistics on single levels from 1940 to present

Future datasets include:

• Thermal comfort indices derived from ERA5 reanalysis
• ERA5 hourly data on single levels from 1940 to present
• ERA5-Land hourly data from 1950 to present
• Fire burned area from 2001 to present derived from satellite observations
• Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR)
• CAMS global greenhouse gas reanalysis (EGG4)
