About
This dataset offers a combined historical record of temperature and rainfall for Bangladesh, spanning over a century. It is designed to provide insights into climatic patterns, seasonal variations, and long-term climate trends within the region. The data is crucial for understanding the impact of climate variations on various sectors and for conducting in-depth climatological research.
Columns
The dataset is structured with four key columns:
- tem: Represents the monthly average temperature, likely measured in degrees Celsius. The values range from a minimum of 16.8 degrees to a maximum of 29.5 degrees, with a mean of 25.1 degrees.
- Month: Indicates the month for the given data point, represented numerically from 1 (January) to 12 (December). All 12 months are represented, with a mean month value of 6.5.
- Year: Specifies the year of the data point, covering a period from 1901 up to 2023. The data spans from 1901 to 2015 based on one internal data count, but the dataset's stated temporal coverage is up to 2023.
- rain: Denotes the monthly total rainfall, presumably measured in millimetres. Rainfall values range from 0 millimetres to over 1000 millimetres, with a mean of 203 millimetres.
Distribution
The dataset is provided as a CSV file. It has a size of 33.19 kB and contains 1380 valid records across all columns, indicating a consistent and complete dataset without missing or mismatched entries for these specific columns.
Usage
This dataset is particularly valuable for:
- Climatological research and detailed climate change studies.
- Agricultural planning and forecasting, helping to predict crop yields and manage resources.
- Environmental and ecological studies, assessing the impact of climate on ecosystems.
- Resource management and planning in industries highly sensitive to climatic variations.
Coverage
The dataset's temporal scope extends from 1901 to 2023, offering a long-term historical perspective on climate trends. Geographically, the rainfall data is specifically focused on Bangladesh, while the temperature data is part of NASA's global meteorological data, providing a specific regional focus for combined analysis. It covers all months of the year across this period.
