Description

Outputs from the probabilistic projection methods developed or assessed in the European Climate Projection system (EUCP) Horizon2020 project. The data can be previewed through our interactive atlas.

Preprocessed data of Atlas in EUCP-WP2

We provide some notebooks that check the original/raw data, fix/add the metadata using CF-conventions https://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-conventions/cf-conventions-1.9/cf-conventions.html and save data in a NetCDF format. See https://github.com/eucp-project/atlas/blob/main/python/README.md.

For two of the methods, REA and ClimWIP, pre-calculated weights have also been included. Note that these weights are only valid in the context of this specific model ensemble. Therefore, the original (pre-processed) model data is published together with the weights.

The pre-processed data follows the following standards:

coordinates


climatology_bounds (climatology_bounds) datetime64[ns] ['2050-06-01', '2050-09-01', '2050-12-01', '2051-03-01']
time (time) (datetime64[ns]) [2050-07-16 2051-01-16] # "JJA", "DJF"
latitude (lat) (float64) [30, ..., 75]
longitude (lon) (float64) [-10, ..., 40]
percentile (percentile) (int64) [10, 25, 50, 75, 90]


variables


tas (time, latitude, longitude, percentile) (float64)
pr (time, latitude, longitude, percentile) (float64)
