Central America Monthly Precipitation and Anomalies

 

Central America Anomalies Based on the TRMM-Merged Product

NOTE: Precipitation anomalies are derived from a TRMM climatology covering the years 1998-2005. This is a short term climatology of 8 years. Your discretion is strongly advised in using this information.

Central America Anomalies Based on the CPC CMORPH Product

NOTE: Precipitation anomalies are derived from rain gauges based on gridded monthly climatology data from the Global Land Precipitation Project, which is gridded at 0.05x0.05 degree latlon resolution. The climatology period is 1948-2002 with stations present on and off during this period. Your discretion is strongly advised in using this information.
