| PWAT | Precipitable water | kg/m2 | Precipitable water is the depth of water vapour in a column of the atmosphere, if all the water in that column were precipitated as rain. It indicates the amount of moisture above ground. |
| PREC | Precipitation (rainfall) | mm | Average yearly and monthly sums of precipitation. |
| SNOWD | Snow days | days | Snow days are calculated as days with snow water depth equivalent to or higher than 5 mm. |
| ALB | Surface albedo | Fraction of solar irradiance reflected by surface. Ratio of upwelling to downwelling (GHI) radiative fluxes at the surface. | |

Yearly and monthly values are aggregated from daily values. |
| HDD | Heating degree days | degree days | Quantifies energy demand needed to heat a building. "Heating degree days" are a measure of how much (in degrees), and for how long (in days), outside air temperature was lower than a specific base daily average temperature (18°C). Yearly and monthly values are aggregated from daily values. |
| GHI_VAR_LONG | Long-term variability of Global horizontal irradiation | % | The standard deviation of the yearly time series of GHI. |
| GHI_VAR_SHORT | Short-term variability of Global horizontal irradiation | The yearly average count of GHI ramps exceeding the 400 W/m2 threshold, analyzed from Solargis GHI Time Series. |

Time representation of various parameters depends on the input sources and models behind them. With few exceptions, it spans from the 1990s/2000s to the last year. Depending on the region, the long-term averages are calculated for a period from 1994/1999/2005/2007/2018 to 2024. Please, refer to the map above for the specific start year.
The long-term averages of the other meteorological parameters are calculated for a period 1994-2024 globally.
Ground albedo data represents the long-term average for a period 2006-2015.
