The ECCC Climate Model Datasets for Climate Science and Impacts Research

The Climate Research Division's climate modelling program provides climate model output for the climate science and climate change research community, nationally and internationally. This dataset includes global Earth System model output (from several generations of models), regional climate model output, such as that contributed to the international CORDEX project for regional climate downscaling, and more specialized collections of climate model output supporting projects and collaborations with other climate research institutions, nationally and internationally (examples include GeoMIP, seasonal forecast intercomparisons, and CLIMDEX).

Note: This dataset constitutes approximately 40TB of climate model output, in thousands of individual files, and in prescribed NetCDF formats, consistent with other international climate modelling institutions.

Data license agreement: This dataset is subject to the Open Government Licence - Canada. If the data are subject to any other agreements, these will be specifically noted with the data.
