In this study, we present the collation and analysis of the gridded land-based dataset ofindices of temperature and precipitation extremes: HadEX2. Indices were calculated based onstation data using a consistent approach recommended by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices, resulting in theproduction of 17 temperature and 12 precipitation indices derived from daily maximum andminimum temperature and precipitation observations. High-quality in situ observations fromover 7000 temperature and 11,000 precipitation meteorological stations across the globe wereobtained to calculate the indices over the period of record available for each station. Monthlyand annual indices were then interpolated onto a 3.75 x 2.5 longitude-latitude grid over theperiod 1901–2010. Linear trends in the gridded ﬁelds were computed and tested for statisti...
