This product provides the monthly runoff, evapotranspiration and soil water of major Arctic river basins in 2018-2065 based on the land surface model Vic. The spatial accuracy is 10km. Major Arctic river basins include Lena, Yenisey, ob, Kolyma, Yukon and Mackenzie basins. According to the rcp2.6 (low emission intensity) and rcp8.5 (high emission intensity) scenario results provided by the ipsl-cm5a-lr model in cmip5 in the fifth assessment report of IPCC, the future climate scenario driving data applicable to the Arctic region of 0.1 ° is obtained through statistical downscaling. Using the calibrated land surface hydrological model Vic on a global scale, based on the future climate scenario driven data of 0.1 °, the monthly time series of runoff, soil water and evapotranspiration of the Arctic River Basin in the middle of this century under future climate change are estimated.

File naming and required software

File name: the data is stored in NetCDF format. The name of the file is "basin_vic_variable_model_rcpxxx_monthly_2018-2065.nc", in which basin represents the name of the research basin, variable represents the corresponding water cycle elements, model represents the selected climate model, and rcpxxx represents the emission concentration. Like Kolyma_ vic_ evap_ ipsl-cm5a-lr_ rcp2p6_ monthly_ 2018-2065. NC represents the evapotranspiration of Kolyma basin estimated by this VIC Model Based on the climate scenario of rcp2p6 in ipsl-cm5a-lr model. Data reading method: NetCDF file reading
