Hamburg urban winter climate data on 250 m resolution (Version 1.0)
This data contains results of the mesoscale transport and stream model METRAS (Schlünzen et al., 2018) for 43 winter situations described in detail in Boettcher et al. (in prep.). Combined they characterise the Hamburg urban winter climate based on statistical-dynamical downscaling (Boettcher et al., in prep.). They are used as reference climate for quantifying the impact of climate adaptation measures. The situation selection is based on analysed in-situ data for years 1981 to 2010 (Boettcher et al., in prep.). The data include wind speed, wind direction, wind components, real air temperature, relative humidity, total air pressure and total air density at lowest model level (about 10 m above ground). A non-uniform grid is used. The data cover an area of approximately 240 x 240 km² with a horizontal spatial solution of 6000 m at the lateral boundaries and down to 250 m resolution in the inner domain. Forcing data are ECMWF analysis data at lateral and upper model boundaries. Each situation covers 3 days of model time. Data have a resolution of 30 minutes.

- Descriptor

Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.) In meteorological reports, the direction of the wind vector is usually (but not always) given as the direction from which it is blowing (wind_from_direction) (westerly, northerly, etc.). In other contexts, such as atmospheric modelling, it is often natural to give the direction in the usual manner of vectors as the heading or the direction to which it is blowing (wind_to_direction) (eastward, southward, etc.) "from_direction" is used in the construction X_from_direction and indicates the direction from which the velocity vector of X is coming.

- wind_speed
- Descriptor
-
Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.) The wind speed is the magnitude of the wind velocity.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: m s-1
- Attribute description
- upward_air_velocity
