RCM forcing data from three realisations of the CMIP5 experiment historical. The historical experiment covers the period 1850-2005. Forcing data are available from 1949 to 2005 only. The realisations differ with respect of their branch times of the pre-industrial control run (piControl): historical_r1i1p1 started end of 1879, historical_r2i1p1 started end of 1979 and historical_r3i1p1 started end of 1920.
