Spatial patterns of climate change and changes in extremes are important since climate affects society and the natural world on regional scales. By understanding why temperature and temperature extremes as well as precipitation have varied in the past, the project sought to improve prediction of how it might vary in the future. Climate model simulations were produced on the HECTOR supercomputer at Edinburgh using the HadCM3 model. Euroclim500 was a 3 year, NERC funded project.","keywords":"","status":"","publicationState":"published","identifier_set":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1593/?format=json","https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1594/?format=json"],"observationCollection":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/observationcollections/2295/?format=json"],"parentProject":null,"subProject":[],"responsiblepartyinfo_set":["https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/11137/?format=json"]}
