SnowClim: Present Climate Data

This resource is part of the larger SnowClim Dataset (https://www.hydroshare.org/resource/acc4f39ad6924a78811750043d59e5d0/). This resource contains present-day climate metrics. Climate metrics were created by downscaling outputs of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF; Rasmussen and Liu, 2017) for the present-day period (1 Oct 2000 to 30 Sep 2013) using a combination of local lapse rates and terrain corrections for solar radiation as described in Lute et al., (in prep). Climate metrics are available on a ~210 m grid for the western United States in both netCDF and GeoTiff formats.

本数据集隶属于更大规模的SnowClim数据集（SnowClim Dataset，https://www.hydroshare.org/resource/acc4f39ad6924a78811750043d59e5d0/）。本数据集包含当代气候指标。这些气候指标通过结合本地递减率与太阳辐射地形校正方法，对天气研究与预报模型（Weather Research and Forecasting Model，WRF；Rasmussen与Liu，2017）在2000年10月1日至2013年9月30日的当代时段内的输出结果进行降尺度处理得到，具体方法详见Lute等（待刊）的研究。该气候指标以约210米的网格分辨率覆盖美国西部地区，支持netCDF与GeoTiff两种格式存储。
