When released it will run to 06/2006. I will keep your details and hopefully let you know when it is released - but do check the CRU 'High-resolution gridded datasets' page regularly! http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/data/hrg.htm Cheers Harry > ---------------------------- Original Message > ---------------------------- > Subject: CRU TS 2.1 > From: "Maximilian Auffhammer" > Date: Thu, May 3, 2007 4:51 am > To: p.jones@uea.ac.uk > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---- > > Dear Professor Jones: > > I am coauthoring a paper on the agricultural impacts of atmospheric > brown > clouds with V.
