High-resolution Climate Data for a High-altitude Region in Southern Spain: Sierra Nevada
Acronym
HighresolClimNevada
Name
High-resolution Climate Data for a High-altitude Region in Southern Spain: Sierra Nevada
Description
Climate data at very-high resolution (1 km spatial resolution) for Sierra Nevada, the highest mountain region in the Iberian Peninsula located in southeastern Andalusia (Spain) https://smartecomountains.lifewatch.dev/.
The use of very high resolution simulations allows a more adequate characterisation of the climate in regions with complex orography such as the Sierra Nevada, since at this resolution the convection is resolved by the model and is not parameterised.
Scientific Project: "Thematic Center on Mountain Ecosystem & Remote sensing, Deep learning-AI e-Services University of Granada-Sierra Nevada” (LifeWatch-2019-10-UGR-01), which has been co-funded by the Ministry of Science and Innovation through the FEDER funds from the Spanish Pluriregional Operational Program 2014-2020 (POPE), LifeWatch-ERIC action line (https://smartecomountains.lifewatch.dev/)
