It was really a great pleasure to collaborate with over 60 people from around the globe to develop this dataset and paper, which we hope will significantly advance accessible global-scale hydrological data. A huge, huge thank you to everyone that has been involved!

☀️ The dry, warm weather in March and early April in much of the UK led to noticeably dry ground and river flows lower than usual - but recent rainfall has provided some relief. Our hydrologists have been assessing the impact on water resources ➡️ tinyurl.com/Apr25hydro #weather #WaterResources

☀️ It was the driest March at our Wallingford (Oxfordshire) Met Site in a record dating to 1962, our hydrologists have confirmed: Just 5.6 mm rainfall over the course of the month. In fact it was the 15th driest of any month at the site. 1/ 🧪 #weather #rainfall #hydrology
