This Product User Guide describes the indices dataset derived from E-OBS. Background information is given on why certain choices have been made and how the dataset might be affected by that. The E-OBS dataset is available from the CDS: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/datasetdatasets/insitu-gridded-observations-europe?tab=overview

Version History

The version of the indices based on E-OBSv23.1e is the first version available from the CDS. Differences between subsequent E-OBS versions due to increases in the number of station data and density of the network, will propagate into this indices dataset as well. The number of indices is too large to give a complete overview of what has changed between the indices versions, but comparisons between subsequent E-OBS versions are available. The PUG for E-OBS will give general information on what changes might be expected for the indices with a new version. However, the main change between versions of the indices datasets will usually be the length of the dataset.
