A named list containing metadata for AgERA5 climate reanalysis variables. AgERA5 provides climate data based on ERA5 reanalysis, tailored for agricultural applications.

Usage

AGERA5_VARS

Format

A named list where each element is a list with:

long_name

Character. Full descriptive name of the variable

units

Character. Measurement units

scale

Numeric. Scale factor (typically 1.0 for AgERA5)

Details

Variable naming convention: AGERA5-{Variable}-{TemporalResolution}

Available Variables:

  • ET0: Reference Evapotranspiration (FAO Penman-Monteith)

  • TMIN/TMAX: Minimum/Maximum Air Temperature at 2m

  • SRF: Solar Radiation Flux

  • WS: Wind Speed at 2m

  • PF: Precipitation Flux
