The final output consists of CSV files containing time series of the modelled hydropower indicators at country level (ADM0), available at multiple temporal resolutions—weekly, monthly, seasonal, and annual—following the Temporal Aggregation Procedure.
| Note |
|---|
Please notice that the European hydropower indicators (HRG, HRI, HRO) are generated at a weekly resolution; to derive consistent monthly, seasonal, and annual statistics, the weekly values are first converted to daily by evenly distributing them across seven days—assuming constant production within each week—and then aggregated using standard temporal operations. The intermediate daily values, however, are not delivered, as they do not provide additional informational value beyond the original weekly dataset. |

Installed Capacity Weighted Precipitation (IWP) Proxy (Global Domain)
...
The final output consists of CSV files containing time series of the IWP indicator at country level (ADM0), available at multiple temporal resolutions—monthly, seasonal, and annual—following the Temporal Aggregation Procedure.
| Note |
|---|
Please notice that although IWP is computed on a monthly basis, the number of months over which precipitation is accumulated varies by country based on assumptions about local storage capacity; as a result, monthly values are expressed in mm per n-months, seasonal and annual aggregations are calculated as arithmetic means (not sums) to preserve unit consistency, and daily values are not provided, since disaggregating n-month accumulations to a daily scale would be artificial. Please refer to Table 2.1 for the value of n (number of months) used for each country. |
...
Table 2.1: Correspondences between ISO codes and number of months (n) used as lag for each country in the IWP model. Countries for which n couldn't be optimised (not displayed in the Table) were assigned a standard n of 3.
