# Copernicus Essential Climate Variables for assessing climate variability This tool allows you to retrieve Copernicus **Essential Climate Variables** for assessing climate variability from the [Copernicus Climate Data Store](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/#!/home). Copernicus ECV for assessing climate variability is available from the Copernicus portal at https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/ecv-for-climate-change?tab=overview To be able to retrieve data, you would need to register and get your [CDS API key](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api-how-to). The CDS API Key needs to be: - located in a file called `.cdsapirc`in the HOME area (as defined the `HOME` environment variable). The file `.cdsapirc` should look like that: ``` url: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/v2 key: 111:8789787-qwerz4e47-888-not-real verify: 0 ``` - or passed in an enviroment variable called `GALAXY_COPERNICUS_CDSAPIRC_KEY`. This environment variable should contain a string that looks like that: ``` 111:8789787-qwerz4e47-888-not-real ``` When passed in `GALAXY_COPERNICUS_CDSAPIRC_KEY`, make sure the key does not contain the string `key: ` but the key itself only (starting with a number). The file `.cdsapirc` will then be created and placed in the HOME area (using HOME environment variable). - or use `GALAXY_COPERNICUS_CDSAPIRC_KEY_FILE` to specify where your key file is stored on your system.
