Provenance Climate change signal of temperature related climate indices (see below) evaluated from 13 bias-corrected EURO-CORDEX models. Each netCDF-file contains the 10th, 50th (median) and 90th percentile of the climate change signal over the models. Additionally we provide the trust level of the signal according to Tebaldi, C., Arblaster, J. M., & Knutti, R. (2011). Mapping model trust on future climate projections. Geophysical Research Letters, 38(23), doi:10.1029/2011GL049863. ##### Reference period 1971-2000 ##### Future periods 2021-2050 and 2071-2100 ##### Scenarios rcp4.5 and rcp8.5 ##### Periods annual and seasonal (special periods in parentheses) ##### Climate indices * mean air temperature * cold wave * frost days (10 days intervals in April and May) * ice days * extreme ice days * thaw period days (Oct 15-Jan 15, Feb 15-Apr 15) * freeze thaw changes (Oct-Nov, Nov-Dec, Dec-Jan, Jan-Feb, Feb-Mar, Mar-Apr) * heat wave * summer days * hot days * tropical nights * growing season length (annual only) * start of growing season (annual only) * cooling degree days * heating degree days ## Haftungsausschluss Der Datensatz ist für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Bildung freiverfügbar.
