The dataset contains RCM results from the LandClim II project presented in the study by Strandberg et al. (2023).
**Time periods**: PI (30 year time slice) and 2.5 ka (50 year time slice)
**RCMs**: RCA4, HCLIM38
**Domain**: Europe (CORDEX EUR-44, ~50 km)
**Driving GCM**: EC-Earth
For 2.5 ka both RCMs are run with two different land covers:
- 25k-L: LPJ-GUESS potential land cover.
- 25k-R: Reconstructed land cover based on REVEALS and KK10.
**Available data**: monthly 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 2 m
- tasmin - daily minimum temperature at 2 m
- ts - surface temperature
File type: NetCDF-3
The dataset is divided into three folders: 25k-L, 25k-R, PI, containing 30, 30 and 29 files respectively. Total file size: 1.4 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.
