The dataset contains RCM results from the LandClim II project presented in the study by Strandberg et al. (2022).
**Time periods**: PI (30 year time slice) and 6 ka (50 year time slice)
**RCMs**: RCA4, HCLIM38
**Domain**: Europe (CORDEX EUR-44, ~50 km)
**Driving GCM**: EC-Earth
For 6 ka both RCMs are run with three different land covers:
* 6k-1: LPJ-GUESS potential land cover based on RCA4 climate.
* 6k-2: LPJ-GUESS potential land cover based on HCLIM climate.
* 6k-R: Reconstructed land cover based on REVEALS and KK10.
**Available data**: monthly and seasonal data for standard meteorological data such as temperature, precipitation, evapotranspiration, pressure, cloud cover.
##### Variables
* albl - albedo
* clt - cloud fraction
* evspsbl - evapotranspiration
* hfls - latent heat flux
* hfss - sensible heat flux
* pr - precipitation
* psl - sea level pressure
* rlds - downwards longwave radiation at surface
* rsds - downwards shortwave radiation at surface
* ta850 - temperature at 850 hPa
* ta925 - temperature at 925 hPa
* tas- temperature at 2m
* tasmax - daily maximum temperature at 2m
* tasmin - daily minimum temperature at 2m
* ts - surface temperature
File type: NetCDF-3
The dataset is divided into four folders: 6k-1, 6k-2, 6k-R, PI. Each 6k folder contains 30 nc files. The PI folder contains 29 nc files. Total file size: 3.3 GB.
The entire dataset can be downloaded in a zip file here. Individual files can also be downloaded directly from their original location at the National Supercomputer Centre (NSC), at Linköping University, both via http and rsync.
