Extreme Warm Year (EWY) for building energy simulations (.epw format) in current climate, Uccle, Belgium

Extreme Warm Year (EWY), based on the methodology of Nik (2016), is extracted for the location of Uccle (50°47'49"N 4°21'29" E) from the EC-Earth driven convection-permitting climate model COSMO-CLM for the Belgian domain extended with land-surface scheme TERRA_URB(v2.0) making use of the SURY (Semi-empirical URban canopY) parameterization ( Wouters et al. 2016). The integrations are identical to the ones which are described in Vanden Broucke et al. (2019). The climate model has a spatial resolution of 2.8 km and an hourly temporal resolution and is available for the recent past (1976-2004) and future (2070-2098) as 30-year datasets. For this dataset, the EWY is extracted for the recent past period. A bias correction is applied for the following variables: temperature (as described in Ramon et al. 2020), solar radiation and relative humidity as described in Ramon et al. (202X).
