Ensemble calculations of "Very Heavy Precipitation Days" from EURO-CORDEX data for Europe

Climate Index: Very heavy precipitation days Definition: Average number of very heavy precipitation days (daily precipitation ≥ 20mm). Additional information: The dataset is based on an ensemble of EURO-CORDEX model simulations of daily near-surface maximum temperature. All ensemble members are bias-corrected against the gridded daily observational dataset E-OBS. Results (ensemble mean and standard deviation) are available for historical (1971-2000) and future (2011-2040, 2041-2070, 2071-2100) climate periods and for the representative concentration pathways RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. The bias-corrected EURO-CORDEX climate model simulations used are: CLMcom-CCLM4-8-17/ICHEC-EC-EARTH, CLMcom-CCLM4-8-17/MOHC-HadGEM2-ES DMI-HIRHAM5/ICHEC-EC-EARTH KNMI-RACMO22E/ICHEC-EC-EARTH, KNMI-RACMO22E/MOHC-HadGEM2-ES SMHI-RCA4/ICHEC-EC-EARTH, SMHI-RCA4/MOHC-HadGEM2-ES
