This deposit contains MAR simulations over the European Alps domain (7 kilometers resolution) forced by the EC-EARTH3 GCM (CMIP6 version) The version of the MAR model used is v.3.10, model set-up is described in detail in Beaumet et al., 2021 (https://doi.org/10.1007/s10113-021-01830-x) Contact person : Julien Beaumet (beaumetjulien@gmail.com), Martin Menegoz (martin.menegoz@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr) The realization used is r25i1p1f1 and simulation was done for the historial (1961-2014), SSP245 scenario (2015-2100). For information about the EC-EARTH3 simulation, contact Eduardo Moreno-Chamarro (eduardo.moreno@bsc.es). Data are available at the daily frequency, with one variable per file (10 years of data per file) CC: Cloud cover, [0-1] MB: Total snow water equivalent, [mm.We] MBrr: Daily rainfall, [mm.We] (5) MBsf: Daily snowfall, [mm.We] (5) QQz: Near-surface specific humidity at constant height, [g/kg] (2) TTmax: Near-surface maximum air temperature for the first model level above the surface (constant sigma), [C] TTmin: Near-surface minimum air temperature for the first model level above the surface (constant sigma),[C] TTz: Near-surface mean air temperature at constant-height, [C] UUz: Near-surface zonal component of wind speed at constant height, [m/s] VVz: Near surface Meridional component of wind speed at constant height, [m/s] ZN3: Total snow height, [m] Other variables are available upon request (see email above). AL : Surface albedo, [0-1] CD: Low level Cloud cover, [0-1] CM: Middle level Cloud cover, [0-1] CU: High level Cloud cover, [0-1] SP: Surface pressure, [hPa] ST: Surface temperature, [C] TT: Near-surface mean air temperature for the first three model level above the surface (constant sigma), [C] (1) TTp: Constant pressure-level mean air temperature, [C] (4) ZZ: Surface geopotential for the first three model level above the surface (constant sigma), [m] LWD: Surface downward longwave radiation, [W/m2] LWU: Surface upward longwave radiation, [W/m2] SWD: Surface downward shortwave radiation, [W/m2] SWU: Surface upward shortwave radiation, [W/m2] SHF: Surface sensible heat flux, [W/m2] LHF: Surface latent heat flux, [W/m2] * Latitude(LAT),longitude(LON)and surface elevation (SH) of each grid point can be read in MARgrid_EUe.nc file (1) For variable TT, ZZ model constant sigma level of 0.9997479 (2) For variables TTz, QQz constant height level are : 2m (3) For variables UUz, VVz constant height level are : 50m (4) Variables TTp, UUp, VVp available at pressure level : 925, 850, 800, 700, 600, 500, 200 hPa (5) Snow height and snow water equivalent are available for three sectors which corresponds to three different vegetation type : The three vegetation type used can be readen in the file MARgrid_EUy.nc, with the variable VEG and their respective fraction for each grid point is given by the variable FRV. The third vegetation type (sector=3) mostly corresponds to bare soil or low crops by default, but sometimes its fraction=0, which gives unrealistic low values of snow height. In this case, using the max. value on the axis sector often gives the best results.
