数据简介: | A Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) is a greenhouse gas concentration (not emissions) trajectory adopted by the IPCC for its fifth Assessment Report (AR5) in 2014. It supersedes Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) projections published in 2000.
Three pathways have been selected for climate modeling and research, which describe different climate futures, all of which are considered possible depending on how much greenhouse gases are emitted in the years to come. The three RCPs, namely RCP2.6, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5, are labelled after a possible range of radiative forcing values in the year 2100 relative to pre-industrial values (+2.6, +4.5, and +8.5 W/m2, respectively). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representative_Concentration_Pathway T: Temperature; U: Zonal wind; V: Meridional wind; Z3: Geopotential Height (above sea level); OMEGA: Vertical velocity (pressure); RELHUM: Relative humidity; SHFLX: Surface sensible heat flux; LHFLX: Surface latent heat flux; PSL: Sea level pressure; PS: Surface pressure; TS: Surface temperature (radiative); PRECC: Convective precipitation rate (liq + ice); PRECL: Convective precipitation rate (liq + ice)。 |
