Permafrost mechanistical simulation with the permaFoam solver in the Kulingdakan watershed (Central Siberia) based on CMIP6 scenarios (2014-2100).

This dataset contains the numerical simulations performed as part of the article by Xavier et al, 2024 [1]. It includes four climate scenarios based on CMIP6 projections (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, SSP3-7.0, SSP5-8.5), which were used to perform mechanistical simulations of permafrost dynamics between 2014 and 2100 in a central Siberian catchment (Kulingdakan River head catchment). The code permaFoam (Orgogozo et al., 2023) is used on a domain divided into two slopes (North Aspected Slope - NAS - and South Aspected Slope - SAS).
