2mT_2020_Monthly_Average_from_CDS

Short description

Temperature of air at 2m above the surface of land, sea or in-land waters. 2m temperature is calculated by interpolating between the lowest model level and the Earth's surface, taking account of the atmospheric conditions. Temperature measured in kelvin can be converted to degrees Celsius (°C) by subtracting 273.15.

Band information

The product contains one single band named "AIR2MT" expressed in Kelvin (K)
