Grid-to-Grid model estimates of soil moisture for Great Britain and Northern Ireland driven by UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) Regional (12km) data (1980 to 2080)
Gridded hydrological model soil moisture estimates on a 1km grid over Great Britain and Northern Ireland for the period Dec 1980 - Nov 2080 (units: m water/m soil), driven by UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) Regional (12km) data (1980 to 2080). The data are provided in gridded netCDF files. There is one file for each ensemble member and separate files for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. To aid interpretation, two additional spatial datasets are provided: 1km x 1km grids identifying majority lake cells for (a) Great Britain, and (b) Northern Ireland. The data were produced as part of UK-SCAPE (UK Status, Change And Projections of the Environment; https://ukscape.ceh.ac.uk, Work Package 2: Case Study - Water) a NERC-funded National Capability Science Single Centre award.

This dataset is a model output from the Grid-to-Grid hydrological model (Bell et al. 2009; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2009.08.031) driven by meteorological data derived from the United Kingdom Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) Regional (12km) projections (Met Office Hadley Centre 2018, catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/589211abeb844070a95d061c8cc7f604). The projections comprise a 12-member perturbed parameter ensemble (PPE) of the Met Office Hadley Centre Regional Climate Model (RCM) under representative concentration pathway (RCP) scenario RCP8.5. The meteorological variables used were daily precipitation, daily min and max temperature, and daily PE (Potential evaporation) derived from other meteorological variables (using the Penman-Monteith scheme). See Supporting Information for more details.
