A multi-model ensemble for the Lake Victoria Basin (East-Africa)

Data produced by all CORDEX FPS - ELVIC models (COSMO-CLM, HCLIM38, WRF, RegCM, UKMO), covering the larger region surrounding Lake Victoria - East-Africa. This data accompanies ELVIC's evaluation paper (van Lipzig et al., 2022, submitted). More information about ELVIC ("climate Extremes in the Lake Victoria basin") is available via https://ees.kuleuven.be/en/elvic/.

In this dataset, zipped files are available per variable (precipitation, top-of-atmosphere short- and longwave radiation and lake surface temperature) for both convection-parametrized (10 km-scale resolution, "PAR") and convection-permitting (km-scale resolution, "CP") simulations. Simulation 10y-period covers the years 2006-2015. Each netcdf file contains 120 monthly diurnal cycle data at 1h or 3h temporal resolution. The full dataset is available by contacting the first author.
