Service Description: Grid of estimated aridity with a spatial resolution of 10 arc minutes. This dataset represents average yearly precipitation divided by average yearly potential evapotranspiration, an aridity index defined by the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP). The aridity index dataset is useful to locate areas that suffer from a lack of available water. Lower values on the aridity index may adversely affect agricultural production and livestock health due to the dryness of the climate.
