High-resolution Climate Data for a High-altitude Region in Southern Spain (Sierra Nevada): Evaluation
Climate data at very-high resolution (1 km spatial resolution) for Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain region in the Iberian Peninsula located in southeastern Andalusia (Spain). Data obtained using the Weather Research & Forecasting (WRF) model v4.3.3 (Skamarock et al., 2021) driven by the ERA5 reanalysis (Hersbach et al., 2018). The PBL was fixed to the Asymmetric Convective Model version 2 (ACM2, Pleim, 2007). Both, long- and short-wave radiation were parametrized using the Community Atmosphere Model 3.0 (CAM3.0, Collins et al., 2004). The microphysics scheme was the WRF single-moment 7-class (WSM7, Bae et al., 2019), and the land surface model the NOAH MP (Niu et al., 2011). The convection scheme was deactivated.
A new version is available which has data updated to 2022 in the evaluation period and, as a new feature, adds hourly resolution climate information on temperature and precipitation, as well as new derived variables such as various ETCCDI indices or climate variables that are essential for characterizing the mountain climate in this region.
