Description

This dataset includes daily precipitation fields from the RegCM4.5 simulation performed by Bozkurt et al. (2019) and the CR2 (2018) dataset, both subsetted to the subtropical Andes. In addition, it includes surface temperature, air temperature at 500 and 850 hPa, and specific humidity at 850 hPa from the Eta model (Mesinger et al., 2012). These fields were used in the manuscript entitled "Potential Instability and Seasonal Extreme Precipitation Projections in the Andes Cordillera through Regional Climate Models (15–35°S)," submitted to Geophysical Research Letters.
