WRF-LIS-CABLE model output from the physics sensitivity experiment

This data collection contains a subset of variables of the raw model output of WRF-LIS-CABLE regional climate model. The simulation domain is the CORDEX AustralAsia domain at a resolution of approximately 50km and covers all of Australia, Indonesia and New Zealand. The simulations span the period August 2008 to October 2010 which includes a two-month coupled spinup period. The data collection consists of daily and monthly averages of precipitation, maximum temperature, minimum temperature, latent and sensible heat fluxes, soil moisture and albedo. The collection consists of 36 atmospheric physics configurations, 3 configurations with the same atmospheric physics but different offline land surface spinup periods, and 3 configurations using a different soil hydrology scheme. Explicit details of the model configuration used to produce this data can be found in Hirsch et al. (2019; doi:10.1029/2019MS001845). The simulations were run using NU-WRFv3.9.1.1 regional atmospheric model coupled to CABLEv2.3.4 land model. More details of the simulations are provided in the readme file. This dataset was produced by Annette Hirsch for the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes, as part of the Heatwaves and cold air outbreaks research program.Preferred citation: Hirsch, Annette, 2020.
