Hi everybody,
Can somebody please indicate me, perhaps in a dummy way, where to get historical climate data for Brazil, Colombia and (especially) Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago and Antilles?
I’ve already explored the “traditional” sources, but I suspect there may be additional (local?) ones.
I’ve emailed some institutions of the last three countries but got no answer. I’m looking for the period 1950-2000.
Thanking you in advance, sincerely.
Paolo

Hi Paolo
The Climate Hazards Group of the University of Colorado and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) have created the Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS) which is a 30+ year quasi-global rainfall dataset. Spanning 50°S-50°N (and all longitudes), starting in 1981 to near-present, CHIRPS incorporates 0.05° resolution satellite imagery with in-situ station data to create gridded rainfall time series for trend analysis and seasonal drought monitoring. Data is avaible athttp://chg.geog.ucsb.edu/data/index.html, as rasters and at different frequencies (monthly, decads, pentad, etc.).
Best of luck!
Dirk
