REMO2020-2-iMOVE Evaluation Simulation Seasonal Climate indicators as part of Essential Forest Mitigation Indicators (EFMIs)

Rechid, Diana et al.

Dataset
Summary
For 18 climate indicators as part of Essential Forest Mitigation Indicators (EFMIs), this dataset contains seasonal timeseries on the EURO-CORDEX EUR-11 grid in netcdf format for the period of 1981 to 2020.

Seasons are defined as: DJF (winter: December, January, February, where December belongs to the previous year), MAM: (spring, March, April, May), JJA (summer: June, July, August), SON (autumn: September, October, November). The climatic indices are calculated on daily data and averaged for the seasons.

File names follow the convention:
ind_efmi_europe_<variable>_EUR-12_evaluation_r1i1p1f1_GERICS_GERICS_REMO2020-2-2-iMOVE_v1_<season>_<time-period>.nc,
where time-period is 1982-2020, season is in DJF, MAM, JJA, SON and variables are:
dd – Number of dry days (precipitation < 1 mm)
evspsbl – Evaporation Including Sublimation and Transpiration
fd – Number of frost days (minimum temperature < 0 °C)
hurs – Near-Surface Relative Humidity
huss – Near-Surface Specific Humidity
hwx – Maximum length of heat waves
id – Ice days
lai – Leaf Area Index
mrro – Total Runoff
mrros – Surface Runoff
mrsov – Volumetric Soil Moisture
pr – Precipitation
psl – Sea Level Pressure
su30 – Number of summer days (maximum temperature > 30.0 °C)
tas – Near-Surface Air Temperature
tasmax – Daily Maximum Near-Surface Air Temperature
tasmin – Daily Minimum Near-Surface Air Temperature
wsmx – Field Capacity
