Heating Degree Days below 18° C (degree days)The monthly accumulation of degrees when the daily mean temperature is below 18° C.NASA Surface meteorology and Solar Energy (SSE) Release 6.0 Data Set (Nov 2007)22-year Monthly Average & Annual Sum (July 1983 - June 2005)Parameter: Heating Degree Days Below 18 degrees C (degree days)Internet: http://eosweb.larc.nasa.gov/sse/Note 1: SSE Methodology & Accuracy sections onlineNote 2: Lat/Lon values indicate the lower left corner of a 1x1 degree region. Negative values are south and west; positive values are north and east. Boundaries of the -90/-180 region are -90 to -89 (south) and -180 to -179 (west). The last region, 89/180, is bounded by 89 to 90 (north) and 179 to 180 (east). The mid-point of the region is +0.5 added to the the Lat/Lon value. These data are regional averages; not point data.Created: December 10, 2007See the NASA Surface meteorology and Solar Energy (SSE) web site at http://eosweb.larc.nasa.gov/sse/. The source data was downloaded from the SSE website at Data Retrieval: Meteorology and Solar Energy > Global data sets as text files. The tabular data was then converted to the shapefile format.

HelioClim-1 Yearly Mean of Irradiance - Years 1985-2005 The HelioClim-1 database, abbreviated in HC-1, offers daily values of Surface Solar Irradiation (SSI) for the period 1985–2005. It has been created from archives of images of the Meteosat First Generation. This dataset provides for each year (1985-2005) a map of yearly mean of irradiance in (w/m2).

HelioClim3v4-MC Monthly Diffuse Horizontal Irradiation for the month of Jun. 2005 in kWh/m2. Copyright 2013 MINES ParisTech / Transvalor Diffuse irradiation received by a horizontal plane during the month of Jun. 2005 for the field-of-view of the Meteosat satellite. MINES ParisTech has developed the Heliosat-2 method that converts 15 min Meteosat images into irradiation maps and stores them into the HelioClim3 database. A monthly irradiation value is computed only if at least 25 daily irradiation values are available. The irradiation values of the missing days are computed by taking into account the mean value of the valid days and the length of each missing day. A day is valid if the HelioSat-2 method can be applied on at least one 15 min slot. Gaps in the day are filled by taking into account the available 15 min irradiation values and the length of the day. The other irradiation components (direct, diffuse) received on an horizontal, tilted or normal plane are then computed and provided via the SoDa Service (www.soda-is.com and pro.soda-is.com) since 2003. Such data are used by academics for teaching and research in solar energy, environment, climate and others, and by companies for the sitting of solar plants (PV, CST), their sizing, and the monitoring of their production. Since 2009, the French company Transvalor is in charge of the SoDa Service. Transvalor provides in addition a series of user-tailored services, such as these maps made with MINES ParisTech that combine HelioClim-3 data with an advanced model McClear that estimates the irradiation that should be received for a given site and given instant if the sky were clear, aka clear sky irradiation. Here MC stands for McClear. Transvalor and MINES ParisTech have set up the McClear Clear-Sky Irradiation service that delivers time series of clear sky global, direct, direct normal, and diffuse irradiation for any site in the world, any period of time starting in 2004 up to now, with a time step ranging from 1 min to 1 month. The McClear is an outcome of the MACC and MACC-II EU-funded projects.

Description: Spatial distribution of selected macrozoobenthic species in the German Bight. Data source: Data from environmental impact assessments (EIA) under the permit procedures of the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) in the North Sea EEZ and research data of the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research; time period: 1997 to 2011, mainly spring and autumn data (EIA data), but also summer and winter data (AWI data) Sampling standards: Data of EIAs follow the standard investigation concept StUK 1-3 (BSH 2007), AWI data collected in accordance with the ICES sampling standard (Rumohr 1999). Sampling gears: mainly van Veen grabs (0.1 m², 30-95 kg), few stations by box corer (0.1 m², 160 kg), Nephrops norvegicus and Goneplax rhomboides sampled by beam trawl and dredge (1-3 m width) Sampling: 1-3 replicates per station, fixation in 4 % buffered formalin seawater solution, dredge and beam-trawl data recorded on board or subsamples frozen stored, abundance and biomass (g wet weight) per species Data analysis: science information system of benthic invertebrate data, examination of quality and plausibility, data harmonisation, product computation by AWI Product description: Grid: 5x5 km² for grab data, 10x10 km² for data on N. norvegicus and G. rhomboides from beam trawl and dredge hauls; available selectable parameter: number of stations, minimum, maximum, mean, median and standard deviation of density (m-²) per species; classification method: natural jenks (Jenks Caspall algorithm), Note: The products contain a different classification of species density! Note: Please regard different value ranges! Rumohr, H. (1999). "Soft bottom macrofauna: Collection, treatment, and quality assurance of samples."
