Abstract

International audience; This paper describes the extension of the previously CMIP5 based high-resolution climate projections with additional ones based on the more recent climate projections from the CMIP6 experiment. The downscaling method and data processing are the same but the reference dataset is now the ERA5-Land reanalysis (compared to ERA5 previously) allowing to increase the resolution of the new downscaled projections from 0.25° x 0.25° to 0.1°x 0.1°. The extension comprises 5 climate models and includes 2 surface variables at daily resolution: air temperature and precipitation. Three greenhouse gas emissions scenarios are available: Shared Socioeconomic Pathways with mitigation policy (SSP1-2.6), an intermediate one (SSP2-4.5), and one without mitigation (SSP5-8.5).
