Temperature and precipitation dataset of WRF model in Northwest China (1979-2013)- A Big Earth Data Platform for Three Poles

This data is the NCEP/DOE reanalysis data of 6h interval nested downscaling by WRF model in northwest China to a horizontal resolution of 12km, 364 grid points in the east-west direction, 251 grid points in the north-south direction and 31 layers in the vertical direction. The simulation time starts from 1979-01-01,06:00:00 and ends at 2013-12-31,23:00:00. The parameterization schemes of the model are as follows: Kain Frisch cumulus convection scheme, WSM3 cloud microphysics scheme, RRTM long wave scheme, Dudhia short wave scheme, Noah land surface model, YSU planetary boundary layer scheme.

The file naming rules in the data set are: wrf_t2_YYYY.nc and wrf_rain_YYYY.nc, where YYYY is the annual abbreviation, t2 is the 2m temperature (unit ℃), and rain is the total surface precipitation (unit mm).

File naming and required software

The data is stored in the format of grid netcdf3, The file naming rules in the data set are: wrf_t2_YYYY.nc and wrf_rain_YYYY.nc, where YYYY is the annual abbreviation, t2 is the 2m temperature (unit ℃), and rain is the total surface precipitation (unit mm).
