This dataset contains a set of reference long term averages for observed climate variables that have been spatially averaged over a set of 14 administrative regions and 23 river basins across the British Isles (see links to maps and lists below). Where possible, reference climatologies for each of the periods 1961-1990, 1971-2000 and 1981-2010 are available for each variable. The availability of a variable for a given reference period was dependant on sufficient data for that variable within the reference period. Each regional value is an average of the 5km x 5km grid cell values that fall within it.
The data were derived from the Met Office gridded land surface climate observations – long term averages at 5km resolution (See related dataset) and are provided as space delimited text files.
The 14 administrative regions used within UKCP09 were:
- East Midlands
- East of England
- East Scotland
- London
- North East England
- North Scotland
- North West England
- Northern Ireland
- South East England
- South West England
- Wales
- West Midlands
- West Scotland
- Yorkshire & The Humber
The 23 river basin regions used within UKCP09 were:
- Anglian
- Argyll
- Clyde
- Dee
- Forth
- Humber
- Neagh Bann
- North East Scotland
- North Eastern Ireland
- North Highland
- North West England
- North Western Ireland
- Northumbria
- Orkney and Shetland
- Severn
- Solway
- South East England
- South West England
- Tay
- Thames
- Tweed
- West Highland
- Western Wales
