Starting August 27, 2025, NCAR’s Climate Data Gateway (CDG) and Geoscience Data Exchange (GDEX) will be retired. The Research Data Archive (RDA) is now the central home for these datasets.
These are climate-downscaling simulations over the East African Great Lakes region for the East African Great Lake Environments (EAGLE) project, using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. NCAR's Community Earth System Model (CESM) Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 8.5 was used for input into the model. Three decadal periods were simulated: present day (2009-2018), mid-century (2055-2064), and end of century (2090-2099.).

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
