There are 7 data files:

• Atm_pres_all: containing the atmospheric pressure time series measured in the different meteorological stations used in the work. Each station contain its name and position in coordinates. All the time series have a temporal resolution of 1 min. The data have been obtained from BalearsMeteo (http://balearsmeteo.com/) and from SOCIB (https://www.socib.es/).

• ciutadella_SL_AtmPres: containing the sea level and atmospheric pressure records in Ciutadella from 2018 to 2021. All the time series have a temporal resolution of 1 min. The data have been provided by PortIB (https://www.portsib.es/ca/paginas/inici).

• ciutadella_SL_long: containing the sea level records in Ciutadella from 2014 to 2021. All the time series have a temporal resolution of 1 min. The data have been provided by PortIB (https://www.portsib.es/ca/paginas/inici).

• ciutadella_spectral_data: containing the sea level and atmospheric pressure power wavelet spectra in Ciutadella from 2018 to 2021. Computed from the data in ciutadella_SL_AtmPres.

• corr_rissagues_1min_allfreq_12h: containing the maximum lagged correlation matrices between the atmospheric pressure time series measured at the 12h surrounding each meteotsunami event in 2021. They have been computed from the data in Atm_pres_all.

• sepic_index_vars: containing the five ERA5 1-hour time series of the variables used to compute the meteotsunami index as described in Sepic, et al,. 2016.

• wind_ciutadella: containing the time series of the wind speed and direction provided by ERA5 reanalysis over Ciutadella during the period of study.
