Data for "Back-to-back high category atmospheric river landfalls occur more often on the west coast of the United States"

The repository contains data used in "(Zhou et al. 2024) Back-to-back high category atmospheric river landfalls occur more often on the west coast of the United States". We included the landfall flags used for AR cluster identification. The landfall flags are generated using TECA-BARD AR detection on datasets including ERA5 reanalysis and CMIP5/6 simulaitons. Large-scale fields of 500hPa geopotential height, 850hPa meridional wind, and 850hPazonal wind are also included.
