Bradgate Brook - Regional climate model data from EURO-CORDEX for the eLTER project

The dataset provides climate scenario data as time series based on an ensemble of EURO-CORDEX regional climate model (RCM) simulations for each LTER site location throughout Europe. The EURO-CORDEX ensemble used here consists of dynamically downscaled CMIP5 global climate models (GCMs) for different greenhouse gas concentration trajectories, the representative concentration pathways (RCPs: RCP2.6 (6), RCP4.5 (14) and RCP8.5 (14)). The datasets cover the following, non-bias adjusted variables: tas = near-surface air temperature [degC], tasmin = daily minimum near-surface air temperature [degC], tasmax = daily minimum near-surface air temperature [degC], pr = precipitation sum [mm day-1], psl = mean sea level pressure [Pa], huss = near-surface specific humidity [kg kg-1], rsds = surface downwelling shortwave radiation [W m-2], and sfcWind = near-surface wind speed [m s-1] in txt and netCDF data format at daily, monthly and yearly temporal resolution. Each ZIP-file data package contains the data file as well as an extensive disclaimer with additional information.

本数据集以时序形式提供气候情景数据，数据基于覆盖欧洲全境所有长期生态研究（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）站点位置的欧洲区域气候降尺度试验（EURO-CORDEX）集合区域气候模式（RCM）模拟结果。本次所用的EURO-CORDEX集合数据集，由针对不同温室气体浓度排放情景的第五次耦合模式比较计划（CMIP5）全球气候模式（GCM）经动力降尺度处理的结果构建而来，对应典型浓度路径（RCPs）：RCP2.6（6）、RCP4.5（14）与RCP8.5（14）。本数据集涵盖以下未经过偏差校正的变量：tas为近地表气温（单位：degC）、tasmin为每日近地表最低气温（单位：degC）、tasmax为每日近地表最低气温（单位：degC）、pr为降水总量（单位：mm day-1）、psl为平均海平面气压（单位：Pa）、huss为近地表比湿（单位：kg kg-1）、rsds为地表下行短波辐射（单位：W m-2），以及sfcWind为近地表风速（单位：m s-1）；数据格式包含txt与netCDF两种，时间分辨率涵盖日度、月度与年度三个尺度。每个ZIP压缩数据包均包含对应数据文件与一份载有补充信息的详尽免责声明。
