Historical and future CESM climate simulations from: Large humidity effects on urban heat exposure and cooling challenges under climate change

This dataset contains the historical and future (SSP3 and RCP7.0) CESM climate simulations used in the article "Large humidity effects on urban heat exposure and cooling challenges under climate change" (upcoming). Further details about these simulations can be found in the article. This dataset documents the monthly mean projections of air temperature, wet-bulb temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, and numerous other climatic variables for 2000-2009 (for the historical run) and for 2015-2100 (for the future projection under SSP3-RCP7). This dataset may be useful for urban planners, climate scientists, and decision-makers interested in changes in urban and rural climate under climate change.
