Abstract:

The dataset includes post-processed model outputs from regional configuration simulations (control and PGW) using the MPAS-A version 8.0.1. This is the first dataset publicly available that uses regional MPAS in combination with the PGW approach to study future climate in short time scales. The Limited-Area domain encompasses 30 degree South to 51 degree North and 3 km horizontal grid outputs, the post-processed outputs available here were interpolated to a 0.25-degree by 0.25-degree latitude-by-longitude grid and 27 isobaric levels (in the vertical). The namelist files to run the model, as well as a README file, are also included in this repository.

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.
