Helgoland Roads - 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.

本数据集以时间序列形式提供气候情景数据，其数据基于欧洲全境各长期生态研究（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）站点对应的EURO-CORDEX区域气候模式（Regional Climate Model, RCM）集合模拟结果。本次研究采用的EURO-CORDEX集合模拟，由针对不同温室气体浓度排放情景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, GCMs）动力降尺度结果组成，对应典型浓度路径（Representative Concentration Pathways, RCPs）分别为RCP2.6（6）、RCP4.5（14）与RCP8.5（14）。本数据集涵盖以下未经过偏差校正的变量：tas为近地面气温[摄氏度，degC]、tasmin为每日近地面最低气温[摄氏度，degC]、tasmax为每日近地面最低气温[摄氏度，degC]、pr为降水总量[毫米·日⁻¹，mm day⁻¹]、psl为平均海平面气压[帕斯卡，Pa]、huss为近地面比湿[千克·千克⁻¹，kg kg⁻¹]、rsds为地表下行短波辐射[瓦·米⁻²，W m⁻²]、sfcWind为近地面风速[米·秒⁻¹，m s⁻¹]；数据存储格式为文本（txt）与netCDF格式，时间分辨率涵盖日度、月度与年度。每个ZIP压缩包数据包均包含数据文件与一份附带补充说明的详细免责声明。
