Atmospheric data for a representative location within the Biosphere Reserve from 1991 to 2020.
Annual climatic cycles define the environment within Psiloritis Natural Park on the island of Crete. This dataset presents twelve-month climate normals derived from NASA POWER measurements at a representative coordinate, providing clarity on average minimum and maximum temperatures, daily precipitation, relative humidity, wind speed, and daylight hours. These long-term averages serve as a baseline for understanding the typical atmospheric rhythms of the park, distinct from current weather conditions or short-term forecasts.

Long term monthly averages for temperature range and daily precipitation rates across twelve months
Compare average temperature bounds, daily precipitation rates, humidity, wind speed, and calculated daylight across the calendar year.

See two months side by side and how much they differ. Both use the same 1991–2020 climate normals and NASA POWER data point as the table above, so they show typical conditions, not a forecast.
