Global Bias-Corrected CORDEX Datasets at Half Degree Resolution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
<strong>Abstract:</strong> This dataset provides globally consistent, bias-corrected climate data at 0.5° spatial resolution, consisting of a set of seven climate variables derived from three General Circulation Models (GCMs) participating in CMIP5 downscaled by 10 CORDEX Regional Climate Model (RCM) simulations and bias-corrected globally for the period 1950/1960–2099. It includes data from three climate change scenarios, namely RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. The three GCMs are: ICHEC-EC-EARTH, MPI-M-MPI-ESM-LR, NOAA-GFDL-GFDL-ESM2M. Data are originally available as one netCDF file per GCM (3) per variable (7, NOAA-GFDL-GFDL-ESM2M: 5) per run (4, NOAA-GFDL-GFDL-ESM2M: 3). Available here are zip-archives of all netCDF files of one run, i.e. only rcp26 or only rcp45, per GCM (see <strong>Size</strong> for the overall sum per GCM). <strong>TableOfContents:</strong> daily mean 2m-air temperature (tas); daily minimum 2m-air temperature (tasmin), daily maximum 2m-air temperature (tasmax); daily sum of precipitation (pr); daily mean surface downwelling longwave radiation (rlds)*; daily mean 10m wind speed (sfcWind)*; daily mean relative humidity (hurs) *: These variables are NOT included in the NOAA-GFDL-GFDL-ESM2M driven data. <strong>TechnicalInfo:</strong> dimension: 720 columns x 360 rows; temporalExtent_startDate_Historlcal: 1950-01-01 00:00:00; temporalExtent_endDate_Historical: 2019-12-31 23:59:59; temporalDuration_Historical: 70; temporalDurationUnit_Historical: a; temporalExtent_startDate_RCPs: 2020-01-01 00:00:00; temporalExtent_endDate_RCPs: 2099-12-31 23:59:59; temporalDuration_RCPs: 80; temporalDurationUnit_RCPs: a; temporalResolution: 1; temporalResolutionUnit: d; spatialResolution: 0.5; spatialResolutionUnit: degrees; horizontalResolutionXdirection: 0.5; horizontalResolutionXdirectionUnit: degrees; horizontalResolutionYdirection: 0.5; horizontalResolutionYdirectionUnit: degrees; verticalResolution: none; verticalResolutionUnit: none *) For MPI-M-MPI-ESM-LR: temporalExtent_startDate_Historlcal: 1960-01-01 00:00:00; temporalExtent_endDate_Historical: 2019-12-31 23:59:59; temporalDuration_Historical: 60; <strong>Methods: </strong> The ISIMIP3BASD v2.5 bias correction method (see Lange [2019; 2021]) was applied to adjust systematic biases using the GSWP3-W5E53 observational dataset.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
