Abstract:

This dataset covers a future-perturbed 45-year period (based on a perturbation of water years 1980-2024, October 1, 1979 - September 30, 2024) and has sufficient temporal and spatial detail to resolve probable mesoscale atmospheric states and processes in a future warmer climate, making it appropriate for forcing hydrological models and conducting meteorological analyses to study one possible scenario of climate changes and resultant hydrologic impacts over the conterminous United States (CONUS). The dataset is the output of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) v3.9.1.1 model (Skamarock and others, 2008), forced with ERA5 reanalysis data (Hersbach and others, 2020) plus LENS2 projected climate perturbations (Rodgers and others, 2021), and consists of time series of nearly 200 2-dimensional variables and a wide range of 3-dimensional variables.

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 GDEX 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.
