*End-of-century 2072–2098

  1. Forcings are of two types: (i) ERA-Interim, which represents CORDEX-Evaluation RCMs spanning the period between 1989 and 2008; and (ii) global climate models (GCMs) representing both CORDEX-Historical and CORDEX-Future RCMs. The former describes the present climate (1971–2000), while the latter takes advantage of RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 to describe different future climates.
