Global Historical Climatology Network - Monthly Temperature, Version 4
The GHCN-Monthly Temperature Version 4 dataset consists of monthly mean temperature (both raw and bias corrected data), monthly mean maximum, and minimum temperature. GHCN-M is the core global land surface air temperature dataset used for climate monitoring and assessment activities. GHCN-M version 4 contains monthly mean temperature for over 25,000 stations across the globe and brings consistency with temperature observations found in the GHCN-Daily dataset.
