Dataset TGW Hydrologic Simulation (Potential Evapotranspiration) Dataset: Mid-Century, Hotter (2040-2049)

The current data upload contains the following hydrologic (water balance) simulation data over CONUS:

• Climate Forcing: TGW (Hotter) (https://tgw-data.msdlive.org/)
• Simulation Scenario: Mid-Century (RCP85)
• Simulation Model: VIC (Variable Infiltration Capacity)
• Output Variables: OUT_PET
• Output Descriptions: Potential evapotranspiration (= area-weighted sum of potential transpiration and potential soil evaporation). Potential transpiration is computed using the Penman-Monteith eqn with architectural resistance and LAI of the current veg cover. [mm]
• Output Coverage: 2040-2049
• Output Format: NetCDF
• Spatial Resolution: 1/16th Degree
• Temporal Resolution: Daily
