Brief description
Data was collected and processed for the project: "Assessment and communication of risks to Tasmanian aquaculture and fisheries from marine heatwaves". Observational data is from NOAA OISST v2.1 (1982-2020), and model data is from 25 CMIP6 models over the historical period (from 1982-2014), with SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5 extensions (out to 2100). Raw sea surface temperature data truncated to the Tasmanian region: 138-155E, 49-35S. Time-series of subdomain area averages are also provided, along with calendar corrections, mean-bias corrections, and seasonal bias corrections for the model data.

CreditThe authors acknowledge the Tasmanian Government’s Department of Premier and Cabinet (DPAC) and the Tasmanian Climate Change Office (TCCO) for funding and supporting the project entitled “Assessment and communication of risks to Tasmanian aquaculture and fisheries from marine heatwaves” (Project K0028038), through the Climate Research Grants Program.
The authors also acknowledge the World Climate Research Programme's Working Group on Coupled Modelling, which is responsible for CMIP, and we thank the climate modelling groups for producing and making available their model output. CMIP6 model outputs were made available with the assistance of resources from the National Computational Infrastructure (NCI), which is supported by the Australian Government. NOAA High Resolution observational sea surface temperature data were provided by the NOAA/OAR/ESRL PSD, Boulder, Colorado, USA, and we thank them for making this valuable resource available.
