Subseasonal Climate Predictions (ECMWF IFS-ENS-extended) for Germany and neighboring countries (EPISODES) Version 2022.01

The subseasonal climate predictions for Germany and parts of neighboring countries are performed with the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) Integrated Forecasting System (IFS) ENS/Extended-Range Forecast and downscaled over Germany and neighboring countries using the empirical-statistical downscaling method EPISODES version 2022. The subseasonal climate predictions for Germany are available on a Germany-wide grid of about 5 km x 5 km on the ETRS89-extended LCC Europe map projection (EPSG:3034). The following variables are included in the data set and are aggregated on a daily timescale: air temperature 2 m (daily mean: tas, daily maximum: tasmax, daily minimum: tasmin), precipitation (pr), relative humidity 2 m (hurs), global radiation (rsds), cloud area fraction (clt), sea level pressure (psl), and wind speed 10 m (sfcWind).
