The South African Atlas of Climatology and Agrohydrology
The South African Atlas of Climatology and Agrohydrology (SAAACA) provides freely available daily weather data at the quaternary catchment scale for the period extending from 1950 up to 1999. The Atlas provides a detailed overview of climate patterns, hydrology, and their impact on agriculture in South Africa.
National Climate Change Information System: Climate Atlas
Explore and view data from the CSIR Green Book’s Risk Tool including projections for temperature, rainfall, fire danger, heat stress, groundwater depletion, and coastal flooding. Compare these with average climate metrics including minimum and maximum temperature extremes (1950-2000) derived from the South African Atlas of Agrohydrology and Climatology.
Global Drought Information System
The Global Drought Monitor assesses worldwide drought conditions using continent-specific inputs, providing a comprehensive view. Global drought indices and indicators supplement the assessment.
