Monthly rainfall data quality control changes
Scheduled Release Date: 11 October 2011
Climate Data Online monthly rainfall information is being updated. A recent data review has resulted in changes to the classification of quality controlled monthly-total rainfall data. Around 500,000 records (5.5% of total records) will have their status changed to ‘not quality controlled’. The total precipitation value should remain unchanged. These records are pre-2000, with greater than half pre-1950. Their status was down-graded because they lacked historical detail.
During the review process a small quantity of daily rainfall data were recovered enabling updating and additional monthly totals to be calculated.
