Gridded historical/future Okanagan downscaled climate data

Multiple GCM and ESM outputs for British Columbia with two repesentative concentration pathway scenarios 4.5 and 8.5 (Meinhausen et al., 2011),were statistically downscaled onto the ANUSPLIN grid using the Bias-Corrected Constructed Analogues with Quantile mapping reordering (BCCAQ) algorithm (Werner and Cannon, 2016) to produce daily climate surfaces for 1961-2100. http://www.pacificclimate.org/data/statistically-downscaled-climate-scenarios. Outputs were then spatially disaggregated and bias corrected in the same manner as the historical ANUSPLIN dataset. Five CMIP5 models were included: ACCESS, CanESM2, CNRM-CM5, CSIRO Mk3.5, INMCM4.
