Climate proxy data are required for improved understanding of climate variability and change in the pre-instrumental period. We present the first international initiative to compile and share information on pro pluvia rogation ceremonies, which is a well-studied proxy of agricultural drought. Currently, the database has more than 3500 dates of celebration of rogation ceremonies, providing information for 153 locations across 11 countries spanning the period from 1333 to 1949. This product provides data for better understanding of the pre-instrumental drought variability, validating natural proxies and model simulations, and multi-proxy rainfall reconstructions, amongst other climatic exercises. The database is freely available and can be easily accessed and visualized via http://inpro.unizar.es/ .
气候代理数据对于更好地了解仪器前时期的气候变率和变化至关重要。我们提出了第一个国际倡议，旨在编译和分享关于农业干旱的代理——降雨祈雨仪式的信息。目前，该数据库已有超过 3500 个祈雨仪式的庆祝日期，提供了 11 个国家 153 个地点的信息，时间跨度从 1333 年到 1949 年。该产品提供了更好地了解仪器前干旱变率、验证自然代理和模型模拟以及多代理降雨重建等气候研究的相关数据。该数据库是免费提供的，可以通过 http://inpro.unizar.es/ 轻松访问和可视化。
