Product Information: Data: Variables from probabilistic projections of climate extremes (25km) over UK, 1961-2100
Process Title:
Data: Variables from probabilistic projections of climate extremes (25km) over UK, 1961-2100
Abstract:
Generates a subset of seasonal time series data from the probabilistic projections of climate extremes for one variable. Results are available as absolute future values for a given emissions scenario, return period (20, 50 and 100-year), specific season, time range and grid cell. The data incorporates a bias correction that ensures consistency with observed return levels for the baseline period of 1981-2000.
User Guide:
The results are suitable for analysis of extremes at specific 25km grid squares, but not for analysis of joint risks at spatially distributed locations. If you're interested in spatially distributed analysis, or other types of extreme event, suitable climate model data can be obtained from other UKCP products. (i.e. UKCP Global, UKCP Regional and UKCP Local. For guidance on the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) and how to interpret the plots, please see the guidance pages.
Warning:
Before using this product, please read the UKCP18 Guidance on Caveats and Limitations, the UKCP Factsheet on the Probabilistic Projections for Climate Extremes (both available here) as well as the conditions of us under the Open Government Licence.
