Dataset
30 year climatologies from model output as used in the 2001 IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR)
Abstract
Data used in Climate Change 2001, the Third Assessment Report (TAR) of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Simulations of global climate models were run by various climate modelling groups coordinated by the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) on behalf of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Climatology data calculated from global climate model simulations of experiments representative of Special Report on Emission Scenarios (SRES) scenarios: A1F, A1T, A1a, A2a, A2b, A2c, B1a, B2b.
The climatologies are 30-year averages. Climate anomalies are expressed relative to the period 1961-1990. The monthly climatology data covers the period from 1961-2100. The climatologies are of global scope and are provided on latitude-longitude grids.
