@sbeale007 i couldn't find any R scripts that fit the data structure, so i would have just had to write them from scratch. better you do it as your first R script. here are some tips.

  1. use library(terra).
  2. take the mean for both temperature and precipitation (we can convert to monthly precip after)
  3. pay attention to the units of precip.
  4. once you are done, do some exploratory data analysis (EDA) - maps, plots of annual cycle, etc. - to make sure the results make sense.
