CORDEX-CORE

See also the CORDEX-CORE  page in RedC for further information.

Within CORDEX the Coordinated Output for Regional Evaluations (CORE) activity was initiated to provide a core set of comprehensive and homogeneous projections across almost all CORDEX domains. The CLM-Community has per today finished simulations following the CORE protocol for the following domains: 



CORDEX AUSTRALIA (AUS-22)

Model: COSMO-CLM-5-0-15

Institute: CLMcom-HZG

Simulations: ERA-Interim, MPI-M-MPI-ESM-LR-r1 (historical, RCP85, RCP26), HadGEM2-ES-r1 (historical, RCP85, RCP26 ), NCC-NorESM1-M-r1  (historical, RCP85, RCP26 )   

Status: Simulations done, currently being published on the ESGF-node

Contact person: Burkhardt Rockel (burkhardt.rockel[at]hzg.de)



CORDEX AFRICA (AFR-22)

Model: COSMO-CLM-5-0-15

Institute: CLMcom-KIT

    • 0.22°

  • Simulation period

    • ERA-Interim simulation for each domain from 1979-2015

    • minimum simulation period 1970-2100 (target 1950)

  • Driving GCMs

    • HadGEM, NORESM and MPI-ESM

  • Scenarios

    • RCP8.5 and RCP2.6

  • Output

    • reduced list of variables (a subset of the standard CORDEX output)

    • in addition:100 m wind on a voluntary basis

    • pressure levels at higher frequencies of different variables

  • Archive

    • standard CORDEX protocol
