Database of CMIP5 climate change projections

\n## **Abstract** \nThe dataset was derived by the Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program from CMIP5 GCMs outputs. The scaling factors were calculated for the period 2046-2075 against 1976-2005. The 10th, 50th and 90th percentile of the scaling factors are derived on the basis of 42 GCMs for RCP4.5 and 41 GCMs for RCP8.5. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.\n\n\n## **Attribution** \nGeological and Bioregional Assessment Program\n\n\n## **History** \nThe procedure to produce the dataset is the same as described in the CSIRO report:\r\nZheng H, Chiew F and Charles SP (2015) Database of CMIP5 climate change projections across south Asia.
