ARISE-SAI_1.5 : CESM2 Extreme Precipitation and Temperature Indices
Description
Assessing Responses and Impacts of Solar climate intervention on the Earth system with Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (ARISE-SAI) is a set of simulations carried out with the Community Earth System Model, version 2 with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model, version 6 (CESM2(WACCM6)) that aims at simulating a plausible deployment of solar climate intervention of stratospheric aerosol injection to enable community assessment of responses of the Earth system.
This dataset uses the first set of simulations, called ARISE-SAI-1.5, that utilized the middle-of-the-road SSP2-4.5 emission scenario, and targetted a global mean surface air temperature near 1.5°C above the pre-industrial value. ARISE-SAI-1.5 is described in Richter et al. (2022). Selected data are available at Richter & Visioni (2022a,b).
The files contained here contain processed annual daily extremes of surface temperature (TREFHT) and total precipitation (PRECT) from the ARISE-SAI-1.5 simulations and companion SSP245 simulations. Indices are those recommended by the WCRP Expert Team on Climate Change Detection Indices, Zhang et al. 2011). Methods to calculate the indices are also described in Tye et al. (2022).
Precipitation Indices
PRCPTOT, SDII, RX1D, RX5D, R10mm, R20mm, CDD, CWD, P95TOT, P99TOT
Temperature Indices
TNN, TNX, FD, TR, TN90, TN10, TN90p, TN10p, TXX, TXN, ID, SU, TX90, TX10, TX10p, TX90p, WSDI
Where T?10 is the number of days below an annual 10th percentile threshold and T?90 is the number of days above an annual 90th percentile threshold (i.e. around 30 days per year).
T?10p as defined by ETCCDI is the frequency of days below the rolling 5-day average climatological day of year 10th percentile. This threshold is also used for the cold spell duration index (CSDI), or consecutive days that are cool for the season.
T?90p as defined by ETCCDI is the frequency of days above the rolling 5-day average climatological day of year 90th percentile. This threshold is also used for the warm spell duration index (WSDI), or consecutive days that are warm for the season.
