Abstract
Climate change studies based only on raw long-term data are potentially flawed due to the many breaks
introduced from non-climatic sources, consequently quality controlled and homogenised climate data is desirable for
basing climate related decision making on. Seasonal cycles of precipitation in Ireland and the UK are projected to become
more marked as the climate changes, and regional extremes in summer dry spells and winter precipitation have been
recorded in recent years. Therefore to analyse and monitor the evolution of precipitation patterns across Ireland, quality
controlled and homogenous climate series are needed.
