Abstract:

This dataset contains post-processed observation-based and model-based data between 1980 and 2020 to support the study the humidity trends. The intercomparison indicates that the observed humidity trends in dry regions contradict the climate model simulations. This may indicate a major gap of hydroclimate-related processes in the climate models.

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
