Abstract Daily records of nine meteorological variables covering the interval 19612013were used in order to create a state-of-the-art homogenized climatic dataset over Romania at a
spatial resolution of 0.1. All meteorological stations with full data records, as well as stationswith up to 30 % missing data, were used for the following variables: air pressure (150
stations); minimum, maximum, and average air temperature (150 stations); soil temperature
(127 stations); precipitation (188 stations); sunshine hours (135 stations); cloud cover (104
stations); relative humidity (150 stations). For each parameter, the data series were first
homogenized with the software MASH (Multiple Analysis of Series for Homogenization);
then, the data series were gridded by means of the software MISH (Meteorological Inter-
polation based on Surface Homogenized Data). The datasets are freely available on request on
the PANGAEA data portal (doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.833627).

1 Introduction
The realization and availability of high-quality climatic data are essential for the realistic
assessment of the impacts of climate variability and change on a region. The creation of
gridded datasets by means of interpolation techniques using the local data values (i.e.,

weather stations records) allows the estimation of the climatological characteristics for
locations or areas where measurements are not available (Sluiter 2012). Gridded data are
essential for evaluating the performance of regional climate models, and they serve as
input data for spatially distributed agrometeorological and hydrological models (e.g.,
Tveito et al. 2006; Birsan 2013).
Within the framework of the project CARPATCLIM (Climate of the Carpathian Re-
gion), funded by the EU Joint Research Centre, the national meteorological services from
nine countries (Romania, Hungary, Ukraine, Slovakia, Serbia, Poland, Czech Republic,
Croatia and Austria) joined efforts in order to build a daily gridded climatology of the
Carpathian Mountains region, with Romania covering over one-third of the area. The
project represented a good opportunity to update the data inventory (together with their
gaps, quality and homogeneity), and its scientific usefulness has already been proved by
several studies (e.g., Lakatos et al. 2013; Spinoni et al. 2014; Birsan et al. 2014a; Cheval
et al. 2014a).
Here, we present the realization and evaluation of a daily gridded climatic dataset over
Romania (ROCADAROmanian ClimAtic DAtaset), for nine meteorological variables,
and spanning over the period 19612013. We applied the same homogenization and
gridding software package used in the CARPATCLIM project, due to its tested perfor-
mance, reliability and speed. A comparison with the E-OBS (Haylock et al. 2008) and
APHRODITE (Yatagai et al. 2012) datasets and with raw time series from some inde-
pendent weather stations (i.e., stations that were not involved in the creation of any of the
two gridded datasets) is also presented.
Several recent studies have dealt with the climatic changes over Romania, regarding not
only the increase in precipitation and air temperature extremes (e.g., Ionita et al. 2012;
Busuioc et al. 2014; Rimbu et al. 2014; Stefanescu et al. 2014), but also the terrestrial
stilling (Birsan et al. 2013), seasonal or annual changes in relative humidity, cloud cover,
number of sunshine hours (Dumitrescu et al. 2014; Marin et al. 2014), the snow pack
decrease (Birsan and Dumitrescu 2014a; Micu 2009), as well as changes in streamflow
regime (Birsan et al. 2012, 2014; Birsan 2015; Ionita et al. 2014; Ionita 2015),
evapotranspiration (Croitoru et al. 2013) or drought (Cheval et al. 2014b). These studies
demonstrate the importance of making available a quality-controlled, daily climatic dataset
covering the entire Romania and extending over a long period of time.
2 Location and data
Covering an area of 238 391 km2, Romania is the largest country in southeastern Europe.
The terrain is fairly equally distributed between mountainous (Carpathians), hilly and
lowland territories. Elevation varies from sea level to 2544 m.a.s.l. It has a continental
temperate climate with various influences: oceanic in the central and western parts, con-
tinental in the east and Mediterranean in the south. The agricultural land covers 62 % of
Romania, while forested areas occupy about one-third of the country (e.g., Balteanu et al.
2010).
The construction of the gridded dataset was realized using daily time series with full
data record over 19612013, as well as some additional data series with at least 70 % data
completeness (for a better spatial coverage), for nine meteorological variables, namely air
pressure (mb): 150 stations; minimum, maximum and average air temperature (C): 150stations; soil temperature (C): 127 stations; precipitation (mm): 188 stations and rain

gauges; number of sunshine hours (h): 135 stations; cloud cover (scale 110): 104 stations;
relative humidity (%): 150 stations.
All time series were extracted from the climatic database of the Romanian National
Meteorological Administration (Meteo Romania). The related weather stations are located
at elevations ranging from 1 to 2506 m.a.s.l. and have a good coverage both spatially and
with respect to elevation (Fig. 1). The stations characteristics and their data record com-
pleteness for each parameter are listed in Table 1.
3 Methods
For each parameter, the station data series were homogenized with the software MASH
v3.03 (Multiple Analysis of Series for Homogenization), formulated and developed by
Szentimrey (1999). MASH is a relative homogenization method that makes no a priori
assumption regarding the data homogeneity, and it uses an exhaustive searching scheme to
detect the most probable break and shift points in the data series from each weather station.
Within MASH, data completion and quality control are performed automatically. The
distribution of the examined meteorological element is taken into account for using an
additive model (e.g., for temperature) or a multiplicative one (e.g., for precipitation), while
corrections are applied to the inhomogeneous series until no break is found. The ho-
mogenization of daily data uses the parameterization results obtained from monthly data
homogenization (Szentimrey 2008, 2011).
In a study comparing several widely used homogenization methods, Costa and Soares
(2009) found the MASH method to be one of the most comprehensive procedures for
homogenization. The quality of the homogenized data series is evaluated by the joint

(Costa and Soares 2009). The good performance of MASH was also demonstrated in a
recent study dealing with benchmarking of homogenization algorithms (Venema et al.
2012), within the COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) Action

ES0601: Advances in homogenization methods of climate series: an integrated approach
(HOME).
The gridding was based on the software MISH (Meteorological Interpolation based on
the Surface Homogenized Data Basis), version 1.03, developed by Szentimrey and Bihari
(2004, 2005). The main advantage of MISH over most geostatistical methodswhere the
predictors refer to a single realization in timeconsists in statistically estimating trend
differences and covariances using long-term climatological time series. Therefore, when
these parameters are known, they provide much more information than when using only
the predictors of a single realization. The MISH method (Szentimrey and Bihari 2007) is
especially developed to incorporate information from time series in the interpolation
procedure and is capable to include ancillary data. The software consists of two parts: (1)
the modeling part and (2) the interpolation one. The modeling system for statistical climate
parameters is based on the long homogenized data series and supplementary model vari-
ables. As in MASH, the interpolation system contains an additive (e.g., for temperature) or
multiplicative (e.g., for precipitation) model and an interpolation formula that can be used
depending on the climate elements. The interpolation system is applied to the results of the
modeling system. The interpolation error or representativity is also modeled (Tveito et al.
2006).
4 Results and discussion
It is worth mentioning that, beyond their advanced theoretical background, both MASH
(homogenization) and MISH (interpolation) programs performed admirably in terms of
reliability, speed and user requirements. After applying the two programs to each of the
nine meteorological variables, the output data were converted to NetCDF (network
Common Data Form) format, a CSV (comma-separated values) version of the dataset
being also available. The dataset managed to capture well the orographical effects for all
parameters, as Fig. 2 shows.
A quantitative analysis of the ROCADA dataset has been carried out by comparing the
precipitation and temperature data from six independent stations (Table 2)by inde-
pendent stations we refer to stations that were not involved in the construction of the
gridded datasets; their location is shown in Fig. 2bottom left (for soil temperature, only
four out of six stations had available data). The time series from these stations were
compared with the time series extracted from the corresponding grid cells, from ROCADA,
E-OBS and APHRODITE datasets.

Figure 3 shows the comparison of the aforementioned time series. As it could be seen,
the ROCADA dataset comes closer to the raw station data. The temporal variability of
precipitation is well estimated in all three datasets, especially at lower altitudes. At Stana
de Vale weather station, located in the mountains, the precipitation values are highly
underestimated by both gridded datasets, ROCADA providing the closest resemblance
with the observations.
In order to illustrate how closely the interpolation methods resemble the observations,
Taylor diagrams were also used, as they are able to simultaneously represent three coef-
ficients in one graph (Taylor 2001): standard deviations of measured and computed data as
the radial distance from the graph origin, centered RMS difference indicating the distance
from the point observed located on x-axis, and the correlation coefficient given by the

angle between the x-axis and the position vector. Figure 4 shows the Taylor diagram for
precipitation data extracted at station locations from the three gridded datasets (the entire
data series were considered when building the diagrams). Generally, the E-OBS and
ROCADA datasets show reasonable performance in all cases. ROCADA has a better
accuracy in terms of standard deviation, correlation and root-mean-square error. However,
both datasets underestimate the amount of observed precipitation, as emphasized by the
temporal variability plots from Fig. 3.
Regarding the mean air temperature, the time series plots (Fig. 5) show a much closer
resemblance between the station data and the time series extracted from the gridded
datasets. As in the case of precipitation, the ROCADA dataset managed to better reproduce
the local variability. The Taylor diagram (Fig. 6) shows that both gridded datasets per-
formed well in all cases, with ROCADA having a better accuracy with respect to all three
indicators of the diagramalthough, for two stations, the results were extremely close for
the two datasets.
However, it is worth mentioning that these results could be strongly influenced by the
fact that, within ROCADA, all available precipitation data records with less than 30 %
missing values were used, while in the E-OBS dataset only 28 Romanian weather stations
were involved (www.ecad.eu/).
For the other parameters (i.e., minimum and maximum air temperature, cloud cover,
number of sunshine hours, air pressure, relative humidity, soil temperature), comparison
plots between ROCADA and six independent stations (four in case of soil temperature) are
available as electronic supplementary material.

123
The comparison charts show that at the two mountain stations situated above
1100 m.a.s.l. (Stana de Vale and Obarsia Lotrului), the minimum air temperature and the
number of sunshine hours are both overestimated by ROCADA, while the maximum air
temperature, air pressure and relative humidity are underestimated. Cloud cover is well
reproduced for all sites. The same goes for soil temperature; however, it has to be men-
tioned that there are no observations for soil temperature at stations above 1100 m.a.s.l.
These differences that occur at higher elevations are mainly due to the interpolation
method and to the averaging at the dimension of the grid cell. While we cannot expect a
perfect fit of a time series from a weather station over the data from the related grid cell

Nat Hazards
123
(averaged over 0.1 9 0.1 degrees), it is obvious that, at higher elevations, the values
derived from ROCADA are less reliable in most cases.
5 Conclusions and future work
We presented the realization of a high-resolution, daily gridded climatic dataset for the
Romanian territory, for nine meteorological variables, covering the period 19612013. The
data were quality-controlled, homogenized and spatially interpolated using state-of-the-art
methods implemented in MASH and MISH software packages. The dataset proved to
capture well the orography and is suitable for studies on climatic variability, climate-
related hazards, as well as for spatially distributed agro/bio-meteorological and hydro-
logical models. The dataset is freely available on request at doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/
PANGAEA.833627 (Birsan and Dumitrescu 2014b) and at www.euro4m.eu.
Of course, any gridded dataset-based interpolation of local weather station has its
limitations, at least because the values of a given parameter are averaged over a grid cell.
We are aware that, due to low network station density, the data series might be over-
smoothed (Daly 2006; Ensor and Robeson 2008; Hofstra et al. 2009), leading to a flat-
tening of the extreme values, particularly concerning precipitation at higher elevations
(e.g., Cheval et al. 2011).
Future work on the dataset concerns five main issues: increasing the length of the time
period; adding new parameters to the dataset (e.g., snow depth, wind speed); adding

metadata within the homogenization process; increasing the spatial resolution for some
parameters (first of all for precipitation); testing new spatial interpolation methods.
