Abstract:
Climate indicators are essential for monitoring ongoing climate change, supporting climate impact research, conducting spatial hot spot analyses and assessing attribution questions. These efforts rely on high-quality, reliable datasets that adhere to FAIR data principles. We present a curated dataset of 117 climate indicators for Austria, covering the period from 1961 onward at a 1-km spatial resolution. The dataset includes climate indicators related to temperature, precipitation, radiation, snow, runoff and humidity, with spatial (area means) and temporal (climatological reference period means) aggregations to enable rapid climate impact analysis. The workflow used to compute these indices is supported by a careful technical validation procedure and is designed to ingest diverse climate datasets, enabling the creation of climate indices beyond the scope presented here. Both the dataset and the workflow thus offer a robust, flexible and user-friendly resource for advancing climate research and supporting informed decision-making.
