Brief description

Regional Climate Model simulation dataset for North Eastern Australia for the years 2050-2090. Created with the CSIRO CCAM (Cubic Conformal Amostpheric Model 707) RCM (Regional Climate Model) by dynamically downscaling CSIRO Mk3 Global Climate Model output to 15 km resolution over a target area centred on 17S, 145E for the Marine and Tropical Science Research Facility (MTSRF) project. 40 years of Mk3 output was used as the host model (nested in MK3.0), with greenhouse emissions corresponding to scenario SRESA2. Daily and Monthly Atmospheric variables are available between Lat:-20N -10N(.1 deg res) & Lon:140E 150E(.1 deg res), at 5 levels (1000, 850, 700, 500, 300 hPa), 15Km resolution(C48 grid) & 18 vertical levels. There are 570 Daily files totalling 102.0GB, 480 Monthly_mean files totalling 3.44GB and 480 Raw cubic conformal model output files totaling 100.0GB with all being in netcdf format.
