<div><span>Dear Serge,</span></div><div><span> </span>Here is the method of working with GPCP data.</div>
<br><span>The link from which we can download </span><span>data</span><span> is following.............</span><br><a href="ftp://rsd.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/1dd-v1.1/" target="_blank">ftp://rsd.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/1dd-v1.1/</a><br>
<br><span>Using this link we can download the daily </span><span>data</span><span> and using the ctl file </span><span>gpcp</span><span>.ctl we can plot </span><span>data</span><span>.</span><div><br></div><div>Here in this link you will get daily GPCP rainfall for each months. You can combine all the files using cat command in linux and then use the entire data combined into one and then use the sample ctl gpi9708.ctl which is the ctl file for combined data from 97 to 2008. I think the data set is from 1997 to present and not from 1901 as you said. Also there is GPI data with 1x 1 degree resolution (GOES Precipitation Index data). You can also refer this. This GPCP data is also 1X1 degree resolution so that you can use it for your study.Best of luck.<br clear="all">
