The COMPASS project recently released a “Dataset on weather types and largescale climate drivers“.
This dataset facilitates the analysis of relationships between UK weather types and large-scale drivers relevant to winter North Atlantic circulation. This dataset is closely linked to the “Report on understanding of weather types and largescale climate drivers” which aims to extend the weather type approach to consider compound events for specific geographies and develop a framework to understand associated drivers.
The dataset (currently v1.0) is available on the COMPASS research repository Zenodo at the following DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.16984885.
