Extreme climate indicators in the Port Arthur Texas area calculated from downscaled climate models from 1950 to 2100

Port Arthur local downscaled climate data including frequency, duration, and intensity of events like heatwave, and extreme precipitation. Data were downscaled from 22 global climate models to 1/16th degree spatial resolution and represent the years 1950-2100. This dataset includes time series of annually averaged values for heating and cooling degree days, longest heatwave, days above 100F, and the wettest 3 days (assuming no greenhouse gas reduction efforts). Also included are the annual averages for seasonal and annual heating and cooling, minimum and maximum temperatures, and precipitation. This is one of a suite of four related datasets addressing climate impacts in the Port Arthur, Texas, region. The other datasets are D1.x979.000:0001 (sea level and storm surge impacts, https://doi.org/10.7266/mwbj8s5v), D1.x979.000:0003 (environmental, energy, and demographic datasets, https://doi.org/10.7266/47z4zxjx), and D1.x979.000:0004 (community questionnaire responses, https://doi.org/10.7266/6zs6cmx7).
