# Keskilämpötila --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dataset: Daily mean temperature for the RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios Scale: 10km Year: 1981-2100 Format: NetCDF Coordinate System: latlon/ETRS-TM35FIN Metadata: Daily mean temperature for Finland over the period 1981-2100. Ensemble mean of 13 downscaled CMIP5 GCMs. Time step = 1 day. Atmospheric concentrations trajectory = Representative Concentration Pathway RCP2.6, RCP4.5 or RCP8.5 Downscaling_method = A delta change method that takes into account projected absolute changes in climatological average temperature and relative changes in standard deviations of daily mean temperature (M2 in Räisänen and Räty, 2013; DOI 10.1007/s00382-012-1515-9). A window of 30 days is used. Baseline_period = 1981-2010. Baseline_data = FMI ClimGrid, Aalto et al. (2016), doi:10.1002/2015JD024651. Downscaling_institution = Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI). Downscaling_project = PLUMES. References = http://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/plumes.

Ensemble mean of 13 downscaled CMIP5 GCMs. Time step = 1 day. Atmospheric concentrations trajectory = Representative Concentration Pathway RCP2.6, RCP4.5 or RCP8.5 Downscaling_method = A two-step delta change method that takes into account projected changes both in daily mean and daily maximum temperature. First, for daily mean temperature, a delta change method is used that takes into account projected absolute changes in climatological average temperature and relative changes in standard deviations of daily mean temperature (M2 in Räisänen and Räty, 2013; DOI 10.1007/s00382-012-1515-9). Second, the maximum temperature is calculated by adding the difference of maximum and mean temperature to downscaled mean temperature and taking account the projected relative change in climatological difference between maximum and mean temperatures. A window of 30 days is used. Baseline_period = 1981-2010. Baseline_data = FMI ClimGrid, Aalto et al. (2016), doi:10.1002/2015JD024651.

Ensemble mean of 13 downscaled CMIP5 GCMs. Time step = 1 day. Atmospheric concentrations trajectory = Representative Concentration Pathway RCP2.6, RCP4.5 or RCP8.5 Downscaling_method = A two-step delta change method that takes into account projected changes both in daily mean and daily minimum temperature. First, for daily mean temperature, a delta change method is used that takes into account projected absolute changes in climatological average temperature and relative changes in standard deviations of daily mean temperature (M2 in Räisänen and Räty, 2013; DOI 10.1007/s00382-012-1515-9). Second, the minimum temperature is calculated by adding the difference of minimum and mean temperature to downscaled mean temperature and taking account the projected relative change in climatological difference between minimum and mean temperatures. A window of 30 days is used. Baseline_period = 1981-2010. Baseline_data = FMI ClimGrid, Aalto et al. (2016), doi:10.1002/2015JD024651.

Ensemble mean of 13 downscaled CMIP5 GCMs. Time step = 1 day. Atmospheric concentrations trajectory = Representative Concentration Pathway RCP2.6, RCP4.5 or RCP8.5 Downscaling_method = A delta change mean that takes into account projected relative changes in daily precipitation and in coefficien of variation (M3 in Räty et al., 2014; DOI 10.1007/s00382-014-2130-8). A window of 65 days is used. Baseline_period = 1981-2010. Baseline_data = FMI ClimGrid, Aalto et al. (2016), doi:10.1002/2015JD024651.
