:Description = "The ClimAVA-SW dataset provides a high-resolution (4km) bias-corrected, downscaled future climate projection based on seventeen CMIP6 GCMs. The dataset includes three variables (pr, tasmin, tasmax) and three Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSP245, SSP370, SSP585) for the entire U.S.Southwest region. ClimAVA-SW employs the Spatial Pattern Interaction Downscaling (SPID) method which applies Random Forest model to translate the relationships and interactions between spatial patterns at a coarse resolution and fine-resolution pixel values. A random forest model is trained for each pixel, with the finer pixel of the reference data as the predictor and nine pixels from the spatially resampled (coarser) version of the reference data (at the GCMs spatial resolution) as predictors. Models are then used to downscale the GCM data. See the pepper describing the method and data set for more information." ;
:Lineage = "ClimaAVA uses the Parameter-elevation Relationships on Independent The Slopes Model (PRISM 4K) project (https://prism.oregonstate.edu/) as reference data for both bias correction and the training of downscaling models.
