Monthly precipitation in mm based on SM2RAIN-ASCAT 2007-2018 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2615278). Downscaled to 1 km resolution using gdalwarp (cubic splines) and an average between WorldClim (http://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/worldclim/v2.0/), CHELSA Climate (https://www.wsl.ch/lud/chelsa/data/climatologies/prec/) and IMERGE monthly product (ftp://jsimpson.pps.eosdis.nasa.gov/NRTPUB/imerg/gis/ see files e.g. "3B-MO-L.GIS.IMERG.20180601.V05B.tif"). Processing steps are available here . Antartica is not included.
