How to cite the ERA5-Land dataset

In addition to the terms and conditions of the license(s), users must:

  • cite the CDS catalogue entry;
  • provide clear and visible attribution to the Copernicus programme and attribute each data product used;

Step 1: Check the licence to use Copernicus Products for attribution/reference clause.

Step 2: Cite the CDS catalogue entry (as traceable source of data).  

Step 3: Provide clear and visible attribution to the Copernicus programme and attribute each data product used (to accredit the creators of the data). Throughout the content of your publication, the dataset used is referred to as Author (YYYY).

The 3-steps procedure above is illustrated with this example:

 Use Case 1: ERA5-Land hourly data from 1950 to present
