Compound dry and hot events in ERA5-Land and a regional single-model initial condition large ensemble of the CRCM5

This data accompanies the study "Future patterns of compound dry and hot summers and their link to soil moisture droughts in Europe" submitted to Earth's Future. The folder CDHE_ERA5-Land.zip contains a nc-file with summers 1950-2023, covering all of Europe in 0.11° spatial resolution. The folder CDHE_CRCM5-LE.zip contains three subfolders for summers in 2001-2020, 2021-2040, and 2042-2061 with 50 files each, representing the 50 members of the CRCM5-LE (see Leduc et al. 2019 for reference). 

Each nc-file corresponds to a mask indicating whether a summer at a specific location qualifies as a compound dry and hot extreme (CDHE) as defined in the study.

Computations with the CRCM5 for the ClimEx project were performed on the HPC system SuperMUC and the Linux Cluster of the Leibniz Supercomputing Center LRZ, Bavarian Academy of Sciences and the Humanities (BAdW), funded via GCS by BMBF and StMWFK.
