1. Inundation_Area_July2022_RiverAhr (Shape-Format)
   The dataset includes the inundation areas along the river Ahr, which were derived using available data (Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2) and pictures/video sequences from media and social media channels in near-real-time (within a few days after the flood).
2. BackwardTrajectories_baseonERA5_LAGRANTO (txt-Format)
   The dataset includes the pathway of air masses in the form of 10-day kinematic backward trajectories using the Lagrangian Analysis Tool (LAGRANTO; Sprenger and Wernli, 2015) based on ERA5 with different start dates.
   Further details can be found in the corresponding publication.

   The dataset includes the pathway of air masses in the form of 10-day kinematic backward trajectories using the Lagrangian Analysis Tool (LAGRANTO; Sprenger and Wernli, 2015) based on ERA5 with different start dates and the following parameters:
   Reference date = start date
   time = hours before starting date
   lon = latitude in °E
   lat = latitude in °N
   p = pressure in hPa
   Q = moisture in g/kg
   T = temperature in K
   RH = relative humidity in %
   TH = potential temperature in K
   BLH = boundary layer height in m
