weather_SouthAsia
(Package: ZeBook) :
Weather series for southern Asia from NASA POWER agroclimatology
This contemporary daily climate dataset for South Asia covers the period 1st January 1997 to 31 December 2008 with 12 complete years of data with precipitation. It cover a part of South Asia (North-East of India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Neapal) with an elevation less than 2500m. The dataset was extracted from the NASA Langley Research Center POWER Project which provide agroclimatology dataset (Chandler et al., 2004). It was funded through the NASA Earth Science Directorate Applied Science Program This climate dataset contains daily estimates of precipitation, mean, minimum and maximum temperature, relative humidity, dew point, solar radiation and wind speed with global coverage at one degree resolution (approximately 111 km at the equator). The NASA POWER agroclimatology data are derived from various sources: solar radiation from satellite observations, meteorological data from the Goddard Earth Observing System global assimilation model version 4 (GEOS-4), and precipitation from the Global Precipitation Climate Project and Topical Rainfall Measurement Mission.

Sample are: ca 30m x 30m, between 83N and 65S latitude. Result : a single number giving the elevation in meters according to aster gdem, ocean areas have been masked as "no data" and have been assigned a value of -9999 Example http://api.geonames.org/astergdem?lat=50.01&lng=10.2&username=demo
weather_FranceWest
(Package: ZeBook) :
Weather series for western France from NASA POWER agroclimatology
This contemporary daily climate dataset for West of France covers the period 1st January 1984 to 31 December 2011. The precipitation data is limited to the period Jan-1997 Aug-2009, thus only 12 complete years of data were available for analysis involving precipitation(1997 to 2009). It cover main part of West part of France defined as a rectangle. The dataset was extracted from the NASA Langley Research Center POWER Project which provide agroclimatology dataset (Chandler et al., 2004). It was funded through the NASA Earth Science Directorate Applied Science Program This climate dataset contains daily estimates of precipitation, mean, minimum and maximum temperature, relative humidity, dew point, solar radiation and wind speed with global coverage at one degree resolution (approximately 111 km at the equator).

(Package: ZeBook) :
Weather serie for Europe EU from NASA POWER agroclimatology
This contemporary daily climate dataset for Europe covers the period 1st January 2001 to 31 December 2010 with 10 complete years of data. It cover a part of Europe) with an elevation less than 500m. The dataset was was extrated from the NASA Langley Research Center POWER Project which provide agroclimatology dataset (Chandler et al., 2004).

watbal.simobsdata
(Package: ZeBook) :
Soil water content measurements and associated simulations with WaterBalance model
Data of soil water content from Luc Champolivier (CETIOM), in En Crambade (31, France), on canola without irrigation in 2008. sonde Diviner 2000 (from Sentek Pty Ltd) Simulation are from watbal.model, with an initial water content estimated from measurement with Diviner 2000.
Darroch and Baker (1990) studied grain filling in three spring wheat genotypes. The data are seed weights of the spring wheat cultivar Neepawa in three different years 1986, 1987, 1988. These data were numerised from figure of the article, so they present slight difference with original data.
This dataset content dynamic measurements of growth of chicks for different individuals and different strains. The data comes from a selection experiment on chicken initiated by F. Ricard Research Station on Poultry of INRA Nouzilly. The selection focuses on weight at 8 and 36 weeks and allowed to differentiate the following five strains:

Wheat_GPC
(Package: ZeBook) :
Grain Protein Contents in Wheat Grains
This dataset contains data for 43 plots. The column GPC corresponds to measured data, GPC.model1 and GPC.model2 correspond to the results obtained by two models. The other columns contain other information for each plot (technical practices) : number, tillage, max_water, preceding_crop, sow_date, Nendwinter, Nfertilizer, SPAD, NNI, Yield.
