<p dir="ltr">This file contains monthly gridded data for diurnal temperature range (DTR) from the Climatic Research Unit Time-Series (CRU TS) Version 4.09 dataset, spanning 1901 to 2024. Stored in NetCDF format and compressed using gzip, it provides global land-surface values at 0.5° spatial resolution. DTR measures the difference between daily maximum and minimum temperatures and is crucial for studying climate variability, energy balance, agriculture, and health impacts. The dataset supports long-term climate research, modeling efforts, and integration with other CRU TS variables such as precipitation, cloud cover, and mean temperatures.</p>
