Title

Observed humidity trends in dry regions contradict climate models

Abstract

This dataset contains post-processed observation-based and model-based data that can be used to reproduce the figures in Simpson et al (2023) "Observed humidity trends in dry regions contradict climate models", PNAS. The scripts that were used to generate these data and to make the figure papers can be found at https://github.com/islasimpson/qtrend_paper.
