clim: Annual mean temperature and precipitation (2001-2010)

Description

This data set provides annual temperature (bio01, unit: <U+00B0>C) and precipitation (bio12, unit: mm/year) obtained from the CHELSA model (Climatologies at high resolution for the Earth land surface areas, v1.2) resampled to 2x2 degrees resolution. CHELSA (http://chelsa-climate.org/) is a high resolution (30 arc sec, ~1 km) climate data set for the earth land surface areas. CHELSA_v1 is based on a quasi-mechanistical statistical downscaling of the ERA interim global circulation model.
