Loch Dee - Regional climate model data from EURO-CORDEX for the eLTER project

The dataset provides climate scenario data as time series based on an ensemble of EURO-CORDEX regional climate model (RCM) simulations for each LTER site location throughout Europe. The EURO-CORDEX ensemble used here consists of dynamically downscaled CMIP5 global climate models (GCMs) for different greenhouse gas concentration trajectories, the representative concentration pathways (RCPs: RCP2.6 (6), RCP4.5 (14) and RCP8.5 (14)). The datasets cover the following, non-bias adjusted variables: tas = near-surface air temperature [degC], tasmin = daily minimum near-surface air temperature [degC], tasmax = daily minimum near-surface air temperature [degC], pr = precipitation sum [mm day-1], psl = mean sea level pressure [Pa], huss = near-surface specific humidity [kg kg-1], rsds = surface downwelling shortwave radiation [W m-2], and sfcWind = near-surface wind speed [m s-1] in txt and netCDF data format at daily, monthly and yearly temporal resolution. Each ZIP-file data package contains the data file as well as an extensive disclaimer with additional information.

本数据集提供基于欧洲各长期生态研究（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）站点位置的欧洲协同区域气候降尺度试验（EURO-CORDEX）区域气候模式（Regional Climate Model, RCM）集合模拟结果的时间序列气候情景数据。本次采用的EURO-CORDEX集合模拟集，由针对不同温室气体浓度轨迹的耦合模式比较计划第五阶段（Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5, CMIP5）全球气候模式（Global Climate Model, GCM）的动力降尺度结果构成，涵盖代表性浓度路径（Representative Concentration Pathways, RCPs）中的RCP2.6(6)、RCP4.5(14)与RCP8.5(14)。数据集包含以下未经过偏差校正的变量：tas为近地表气温[单位：℃]，tasmin为日最低近地表气温[单位：℃]，tasmax为日最低近地表气温[单位：℃]，pr为降水总量[单位：mm·d⁻¹]，psl为平均海平面气压[单位：Pa]，huss为近地表比湿[单位：kg·kg⁻¹]，rsds为地表下行短波辐射[单位：W·m⁻²]，sfcWind为近地表风速[单位：m·s⁻¹]，数据以txt与netCDF格式存储，时间分辨率包含日、月、年三级。每个ZIP格式数据压缩包均包含数据文件与一份详尽的免责声明及附加信息。
