Summary: [ Derived from parent entry - See data hierarchy tab ]

ETCCDI indices calculated from ICON-Sapphire (Hohenegger et al. 2023) developed within the nextGEMS project. The indices are based on the 30-year production simulations of nextGEMS, cycle 4 with a spatial resolution of about 10km (Segura et al. 2025). Here, we provide them in the 29-year period 2021-2049 (as the first year, 2020, is incomplete for IFS), driven by the high-emission pathway SSP3-7.0. Two resolutions are provided: the highest resolved zoom level 9 (about 13km grid spacing corresponding to about 3 million grid cells globally) and the intermediate (“CMIP6-like”) zoom level 6 (about 102km, 50’000 grid cells).
