Description
 
The Past, Present and Future conditions were produced through interpolation of average monthly climate data from 1 kilometer resolution obtained by weather stations. The data variables integrated are monthly data of: total precipitation, and mean, minimum and maximum temperature and also 19 derived bioclimatic variables. The data was generated with ANUSPLIN software, this software use latitude, longitude and elevation as variables. The layer elevation used was a SRTM a 1 kilometer resolution.
 
The main source came from the Global Historical Climatology Network, FAO, WMO, and International Center for Tropical Agriculture, R-Hydronet, and minor database of different countries.
