Hydro-climatic projections_Sweden

The ensemble set consists of 16 available hydro-climatic (river flow (m3s-1), precipitation (mm), and temperature (oC)) projections for Sweden. It includes 3 different emission scenarios (A1B, B1 and A2), 5 GCMs (ECHAM5, ARPEGE, CCSM3, HadCM3Q and BCM), 6 RCMs (SMHI-RCA3, CNRM-ALADIN, KNMI-RACMO, MPI-REMO, HC-HadRM3, and DMI-HIRHAM), and two spatial resolutions (50 and 25 km). The results are provided for 1007 Swedish sub basins on a monthly, seasonal and annual scale. Different statistics (mean, 10th and 90th percentiles) are calculated and provided. The HBV model [Lindström, G., B. Johansson, M. Persson, M. Gardelin, and S. Bergström (1997), Development and test of the distributed HBV-96 hydrological model, J. Hydrol., 201, 272–288] was used to provide the hydrological projections. The results for the whole country of Sweden have been published in: Pechlivanidis, I.G., Gupta, H., and Bosshard, T. 2018.
