    Equivalent temperature is a measure of heat in the atmosphere that accounts for the latent heat stored in water vapor in addition to sensible heat as measured by temperature. The equivalent temperature ($T_e$) scales linearly with the moist enthalpy (i.e., the temperature and humidity) of the atmosphere. Te is computed from: $$T_e = T + \frac{L_v}{C_p} q \tag{1}$$ in…

    ERA5, the successor to ERA-Interim, provides global, hourly estimates of atmospheric, ocean-wave and land-surface variables, at a horizontal resolution of 31 km and 137 levels in the vertical from the surface to 0.01 hPa (about 80km). Produced by ECMWF on behalf of the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), ERA5 extends from 1940 onwards. Each day one…
