The data include daily, monthly, and seasonal variables of CORDEX experiments scaled down onto a ca. 50 km grid over Europe (acronym: EUR-44) based on the ALARO-0 regional climate model. Each file contains a single variable and is formatted according to the CORDEX data protocol - meaning NetCDF-4 compressed, CF-1.4 compliant, with attributes and filenames according to the specified DRS. The experiments provided are evaluation, historical, rcp85, rcp45 and rcp26 using forcing data derived from the CMIP5 model CNRM-CM5. The data are provided on the model computational (native) grid.

Annual maxima of sub-daily precipitation were extracted from each of 35 members of a EURO-CORDEX ensemble with a spatial resolution of 0.11° (EURO-CORDEX: https://www.euro-cordex.net/). Precipitation durations range from 1 to 72 hours. Regional Climate Models (RCMs) involved are: ALADIN63,COSMO, HadREM3, RCA4, RegCM4-6, and REMO2015. For each member, we considered both historical (1950-2005) and future (2006-2100) RCP8.5 scenarios. In EURO-CORDEX, different RCMs can have (slightly) different grids and some RCMs (e.g. ALADIN63 and RegCM4-6) have a much different domain. For each RCM the correct bounds are given in the corresponding dataset. In contrast, the bounds given in the Experiment are smaller and can be found on the EURO-CORDEX website: https://euro-cordex.net/060374/index.php.en
