This repo contains infrastructure setup, argo workflows, and validation notebooks which together produce the bias corrected and downscaled daily 1/4-degree CMIP6 tasmin, tasmax, and pr data for the Rhodium/Climate Impact Lab Global Downscaled Projections for Climate Impacts Research (R/CIL GDPCIR) project.

See also:

• ClimateImpactLab/dodola: python package containing the full project implementation called by the argo workflows in this repository
• ClimateImpactLab/xclim: Climate Impact Lab fork of the downscaling engine Ouranosinc/xclim called by dodola for the Quantile Delta Mapping (QDM) and the Quantile Preserving Localized Analogs Downscaling (QPLAD) steps.

Projects making use of the data produced as part of the Rhodium/Climate Impact Lab Global Downscaled Projections for Climate Impacts Research (R/CIL GDPCIR) project are requested to cite both this project and the source datasets from which these results are derived. Additionally, the use of data derived from some GCMs requires citations, and some modeling centers impose licensing restrictions & requirements on derived works. See each GCM's license info in the links below for more information.

Users are requested to cite this project in derived works. This project does not yet have a public DOI or citation - check back for details.

Additionally, we request you cite the historical dataset used in bias correction and downscaling, ERA5. See the ECMWF guide to citing a dataset on the Climate Data Store:
