contents Air quality and climate are major issues in Italian society and lie at the intersection of many research fields, including public health and policy planning. There is an increasing need for readily available, easily accessible, ready-to-use and well-documented datasets on air quality and climate. In this paper, we present the GRINS AQCLIM dataset, created under the GRINS project framework covering the Italian domain for an extensive time period. It includes daily statistics (e.g., minimum, quartiles, mean, median and maximum) for a collection of air pollutant concentrations and climate variables at the locations of the 700+ available monitoring stations. Input data are retrieved from the European Environmental Agency and Copernicus Programme and were subjected to multiple processing steps to ensure their reliability and quality. These steps include automatic procedures for fixing raw files, manual inspection of stations information, the detection and removal of anomalies, and the temporal harmonisation on a daily basis. Datasets are hosted on Zenodo under open-access principles.
