Michael, There are many types of climate data. Can you be more specific? If daily weather, the first place to look is the National Climate Data Center: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/climatedata.html They have daily weather for thousands of stations around the world starting from 1994. 1978-1991 data are available on CD-ROM: http://nndc.noaa.gov/?http://ols.nndc.noaa.gov/plolstore/plsql/olstore.prodspecific?prodnum=C00449-CDR-A0001 They have a new CD-ROM product that looks very promising: http://nndc.noaa.gov/?http://ols.nndc.noaa.gov/plolstore/plsql/olstore.prodspecific?prodnum=C00351-CDR-A0001 I do not yet have it in hand. It looks like it combines many data sets onto one source with a common format. The US National Weather Service Climate, Prediction Center, African Desk, http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/african_desk/ produced a CD-ROM with continent-wide 1987-1995 daily weather data. I have not looked at it closely. UCAR has an eclectic assortment of data sets, including a number with older data: http://dss.ucar.edu/catalogs/atmlists/ They have daily data for Brazil: http://dss.ucar.edu/datasets/ds517.0/ Daily solar radiation data are available from: http://wrdc-mgo.nrel.gov/ My institution's data library has substantial data related to climate modeling and seasonal climate forecasting. Our daily data set is expanding, borrowing from some of the sources I listed above: http://iridl.ldeo.columbia.edu/ I hope you find this helpful.
