Further information and help »

This dataset contains modelled vegetation carbon output from the land surface model JULES, along with the temperature and rainfall outputs (which were originally inputted) at a monthly, 1.5km resolution. There are four different JULES simulations, using two different climate projections (global climate sensitivity of 3.5K and highest global climate sensitivity of 7.1K) under a constant, present day atmospheric CO2 and a CO2 pathway that follows the SRES (Special Report on Emissions Scenarios) A1B scenario.

Provenance & quality

JULES is a community developed land surface model, led by the UK Met Office and Centre for Ecology and Hydrology and is available for use after registering on the JULES repository (https://code.metoffice.gov.uk/trac/jules). The data produced using JULES was model version vn4.9 and the model configuration can be found on the Rose suite u-ao645 under the branch ‘transient_25km_drive’, available from https://code.metoffice.gov.uk/trac/roses-u (registration required).
