Simulated Geomorphically Relevant Palaeoclimate Variables for the Late Cenozoic (from Mutz and Ehlers, 2019)

<strong>Contents Description: (see more details in file header)</strong><br> The files contains long term means of several variables derived from an ECHAM5 palaeoclimate simulation. Details about the type of means and simulations are given in the file name (see explanation below). For information about the simulation setup and boundary conditions, we refer the user to the Mutz et al. (2018) publication. For details about the construction of contained variables, we refer the reader to the Mutz and Ehlers (2019) publication. Data package <em>alterm</em> contains long term annual means, whereas package <em>mlterm</em> contains long term monthly means. The variables included in the data packages are: - csfd: consecutive freezing days (days)<br> - fthd: freeze thaw days (days)<br> - cswd: consecutive wet days (days)<br> - csdd: consecutive dry days (days)<br> - t2am: 2m air temperature amplitude (°C)<br> - tsam: surface temperature amplitude (°C)<br> - pamp: precipitation amplitude (mm/day)<br> - pmax: maximum daily precipitation (mm/day) <strong>Publications:</strong><br> <em>Derived Variables (contained in these files):</em><br> Mutz S.G. and Ehlers T.
