CORDEX simulation (evaluation) on 12.5 km grid over Europe based on RegCM4-2 (v1: MIT convection scheme) forced by ERA-Interim (EUR-11)

This data of the project CORDEX includes CORDEX experiments for the domain for Europe in high resolution (EUR-11) based on DHMZ's RegCM4-2 model.

Each file contains a single variable in the format NetCDF-4 compressed with CF standard names (CF-1.4). The data are provided on the model computational (native) grid. Information on additional project naming conventions is specified in the project description.


The data include several daily, monthly and seasonal variables from the DHMZ-RegCM4-2 simulation forced by the ERA-Interim reanalysis. Data format follows CORDEX data protocol. Please contact ivan.guettler@cirus.dhz.hr for any relevant requests for this simulation.
