Climate outputs for Sierra Nevada in the period 2001-2020

García-Valdecasas Ojeda, Matilde et al.

Dataset
Summary
Daily climate outputs for Sierra Nevada (southern Spain) for the period 2001-2020. This dataset was obtained from a simulation completed with the Weather Research and Forecasting model v4.3.3 driven by ERA5. The variables contemplated are daily mean 10-m wind speed (10wd-wind_speed), global radiation (gr-net_radiation), relative humidity (hur), surface pressure (ps), maximum temperature (tasmax), minimum temperature (tasmin), and daily accumulated precipitation (pr).

Description
Level 0: These data are the raw data obtained with the WRF model v4.3.3 (https://github.com/wrf-model/WPS/releases/tag/v4.3, Skamarock et al., 2021).
The configuration used was based on two "one-way" domains. The first domain (d01) covers the Iberian Peninsula with a spatial resolution of 5 km. The second domain (d02) covers the Andalusia region with a spatial resolution of 1 km. For computational resource reasons, the simulation was divided into two time periods (2001-2010, 2011-2020) and performed in continuous simulations with a one-year spin-up period. This experiment (evaluation) was driven by the ERA5 reanalysis (Hersbach et al., 2018). PBL was set to the Asymmetric Convective Model version 2 (ACM2, Pleim, 2007). Both longwave and shortwave radiation were parameterized using the Community Atmosphere Model 3.0 (CAM3.0, Collins et al., 2004). WRF single-moment 7-class (WSM7, Bae et al., 2019) was used as the microphysics scheme and the NOAH MP (Niu et al., 2011) as the land surface model. The convection was disabled.
