 ## Short Description on `ERA5` Variables
-In most hydrological modelling applications, usually 7 variables are needed detailed as following:  1) specific humidity at 2 meters, 2) surface pressure, 3) air temperature at 2 meters, 4) wind speed at 10 meters, 5) precipitation, 6) downward short wave radiation, and 7) downward long wave radiation. These variables are available through the current `ERA5` dataset and their details are described in the table below:
