Ask with this source

A prompt for your agent that names this source and how to call it through the crw MCP.

  • Long-term climatology

    Use NASA POWER (nasapower) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Long-term climatology" (climatology). You want typical conditions for a place - what a normal March looks like there - rather than what actually happened on specific dates. Example options: parameters=T2M, community=RE, latitude=40.7128. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "nasapower" and capability "climatology". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Daily point data

    Use NASA POWER (nasapower) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Daily point data" (daily). You have a coordinate and want a day-by-day history of temperature, rainfall, wind or solar irradiance for a date range. Example options: parameters=T2M,PRECTOTCORR, community=RE, latitude=40.7128. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "nasapower" and capability "daily". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Hourly point data

    Use NASA POWER (nasapower) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Hourly point data" (hourly). You need sub-daily resolution at a coordinate, for example an hourly temperature or irradiance profile over a few days. Example options: parameters=T2M, community=RE, latitude=40.7128. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "nasapower" and capability "hourly". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>

  • Monthly and annual point data

    Use NASA POWER (nasapower) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Monthly and annual point data" (monthly). You want a multi-year monthly series at a coordinate without pulling every day of it. Example options: parameters=T2M, community=RE, latitude=40.7128. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "nasapower" and capability "monthly". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
