| description | The coastDat data sets were produced to give a consistent and homogeneous
database mainly for assessing weather statistics and climate changes since
1948, e.g., in frequencies of extremes for Europe, especially in data sparse
regions. A sequence of numerical models was employed to reconstruct all
aspects of marine climate (such as storms, waves, surges, etc.) over many
decades. The acronym coastDat stands for the set of consistent ocean and
atmospheric data, where the atmospheric data where used as forcing for the
reconstruction of the sea state. Here, we describe the atmospheric part of
coastDat2 (Geyer and Rockel, 2013; <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1594/WDCC/coastDat-2_COSMO-CLM"target="_blank">doi:10.1594/WDCC/coastDat-2_COSMO-CLM</a>). It
consists of a regional climate reconstruction for the entire European
continent, including the Baltic Sea and North Sea and parts of the Atlantic.
The simulation was done for 1948 to 2012 with the regional climate model
COSMO-CLM (CCLM) and a horizontal grid size of 0.22 degree in rotated
coordinates. Global reanalysis data of NCEP1 were used as forcing and
spectral nudging was applied. To meet the demands on the coastDat data set
about 70 variables are stored hourly. |
