ISIMIP2b Simulation File Names



Note on time slices for individual files

For time slices holding global daily data, files should cover 10-years starting in the second year of a decade and end in the first year of the next decade (e.g. 1991-2000). If the time period starts after the second year of the decade, or ends before the first year of the new decade, the start or end year of the time period should be used as the start or end year of the file respectively. Data on a lower than daily temporal resolution or non-global data should be submitted for the entire simulation period in single files per variable.

Examples of time slices for individual files with global daily data (more examples in table below):

Pre-industrial: 1661_1670, 1671_1680, ..., 1851_1860
Historical: 1861_1870, 1871_1880, ..., 2001_2005
Future: 2006_2010, 2011_2020, ..., 2081_2090, 2091_2099
Extended future: 2100_2100, 2101_2110, ..., 2281_2290, 2291_2299

Time slices for individual files with non-global or non-daily data:

Pre-industrial: 1661_1860
Historical: 1861_2005
Future: 2006_2099
Extended future: 2100_2299
