Data description:

Bayesian_solutions_historical_total.nc: Bayesian estimates (posterior draws) of the GEV parameters, including trends in the GEV location parameter, at both tide gauge sites and prediction locations. This file also contains the observed surge annual maxima from tide gauge records on which these estimates are conditioned.

Bayesian_solutions_historical_contributions.nc: Bayesian estimates (posterior draws) of the contributions from external forcing and internal climate variability to the trends in the GEV location parameter.

Surge_annual_max_ensemble.nc: ensemble of surge annual maxima used to extract the pattern of response to external forcing.
