Annual frequencies of freezing rain diagnosed from the fifth-generation Canadian Regional Climate Model (CRCM5) for the past and future climates
| Description: | This dataset contains output of yearly frequencies (hours) of freezing rain identified using four precipitation-type algorithms applied to output of the fifth-generation Canadian Regional Climate Model (CRCM5) run at Ouranos. Algorithms are applied to three-hourly output of eight simulations of four dynamically-downscaled global climate models (GCMs) on a 0.22° horizontal grid over the North American domain. Simulations for 1980-2005 are forced with observed greenhouse gas concentrations, with data for 2006-2099 using the RCP 8.5 greenhouse gas concentration trajectory. Each occurrence of freezing rain identified in the model output is multiplied by 3 for comparison with hourly observations. These data are associated with the article "A multi-algorithm analysis of projected changes to freezing rain over North America in an ensemble of regional climate model simulations" by McCray et al., submitted in 2022 to the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. |
