Paired time series of daily discharge and storm surge

This dataset presents daily time series of discharge and maximum storm surge at river mouths globally from 1980 - 2014.  

Daily river discharge is the product of routing the mean daily runoff of the JULES model from the eartH2Observe WRR2 reanalysis data at 0.5° resolution (Best et al., 2011; Clark et al., 2011; Schellekens et al., 2017) with CaMa-Flood at a 0.25° resolution (Yamazaki et al., 2011). The maximum daily storm surge is obtained from the Global Tide and Surge Model (GTSM) (Muis et al., 2016; Verlaan et al., 2015). Each discharge location at the river mouth of coastal catchments larger than 1,000 km² is paired with the nearest (≤ 75 km) GTSM output location (Eilander et al., 2019).
