DATA OVERVIEW

Past Weather Data
Past Weather Data
The gridMET gridded surface meteorological dataset covers the continental US from 1979-present mapping surface weather variables at a ~4-km spatial grain. This dataset is updated daily.
5-NMME Models
Forecasted Sub-Seasonal & Seasonal Climate Data
Sub-seasonal climate forecasts for the next 30-days ( CFSv2) and for the next 7-months (from 7-models of NMME) were downscaled to a ~4-km spatial grain across the contiguous US.
20 CMIP5 Models
Future Climate Projection Data
CMIP5 future projections from 20 climate models and 2 emission scenarios were downscaled using MACA to a ~4-km resolution across the US for compatibility with the gridded weather data.
VIC-UCLA
Past Hydrology Data
The University of California UCLA runs the VIC hydrology model with climate forcing from the gridMET dataset to cover the Northwest US from 1979-present mapping with surface hydrology variables at a ~4-km spatial grain.
5-model NMME mean
Forecasted Sub-Seasonal & Seasonal Hydrology Data
Sub-seasonal hydrology forecasts for the next 30-days ( CFSv2) and for the next 7-months (from 7-models of NMME) were run using the VIC hydrology model at ~4-km spatial grain across the Northwest US.
Future VIC-MACA-gridMET Evaporation
Future Hydrology & Streamflow Projection Data
Downscaled projections from 20 climate models and 2 scenarios were run through the VIC hydrology model to produce gridded hydrology outputs and routed into streams over the Northwest US.
