Provides access to Climate Hazards Center (CHC) datasets including CHIRPS v3, CHIRPS v2, CHIRTS-daily and CHIRTS-ERA5, read directly from the CHC server. 'CHIRPS' is a quasi-global (60°S to 60°N for v3) high-resolution (0.05 arc-degrees) rainfall data set, which incorporates satellite imagery and in-situ station data to create gridded rainfall time series for trend analysis and seasonal drought monitoring. 'CHIRTS' is a quasi-global (60°S to 70°N), high-resolution data set of daily maximum and minimum temperatures. Data are returned as rasters or as time series for points and polygons, ready for climate indices with the 'climatrends' package.
