Scientists from all over the world working on the European domain are organized in the EURO-CORDEX community. The different groups use different regional climate models to create a large ensemble of regional climate projections.
...
In order to increase the reproducibility of the simulation results and to avoid misinterpretation, the COSMO-CLM model grid for the CORDEX-EU domain is privided provided here 🔑 together with the definition of the recommended external parameter data file.

The figure shows the mean seasonal and mean annual temperature bias (1989-2008) [K] of the ERA-Interim driven EURO-CORDEX ensemble for the European sub-domains Eastern Europe (EA), Iberian Peninsula (IP), Central Europe (ME), and Scandinavia (SC). Filled circles: 12 km grid widthspacing, open circles: 50 km grid widthspacing. The gray bars denote the bias range of the ERA40-driven ENSEMBLES experiement experiment (25 km grid width) in the period 1981-2000: entire range in light gray, inter-quartile range (corresponding to eight models) in dark gray, and median as a solid line.

An evaluation run was performed by BTU Cottbus using ERAinterim data (Dee et al., 2011) as boundary forcing for data for the time period 1989 - 2008. To establish an ensemble of climate projections different the forcing GCMs and greenhouse gas scenarios (RCPs) listed in the table below were have been employed. Data The data of the published runs are stored in EGSF data archivesimulations which are listed as "published" are on the EGSF data portal.
