Time-series of monthly mean steric sea levels

This dataset with monthly mean sea levels complements the Global Tide and Surge Reanalysis (GTSR) dataset. The GTSR time-series do not includes variations in mean sea level driven by changes in water mass and water density. We estimated the density effect by computing the monthly mean steric sea levels based on temperature and salinity data profiles. The algorithm is developed by Amiruddin et al., (2015; ). We use monthly means of global gridded temperature and salinity data from Ishii and Kimoto (2009). This data set ends in 2012, so we use the EN4.1.1 dataset from the UK MET Office for the period 2012-2014 (Good et al., 2013; Gouretski & Reseghetti, 2010)

STORM tropical cyclone wind speed return periods

Datasets containing tropical cyclone maximum wind speed (in m/s) return periods, generated using the STORM datasets (see https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-020-0381-2). Return periods were empirically calculated using Weibull&#39;s plotting formula. The STORM_FIXED_RETURN_PERIOD dataset contains maximum wind speeds for a fixed set of return periods at 10 km resolution in every ocean basin. The STORM_FIXED_WIND_SPEED dataset contains return periods for a fixed set of maximum wind speeds at 10 km resolution in every ocean basin. The STORM_CITIES dataset contains return periods at fixed wind speeds and wind speeds at fixed return periods (on two seperate sheets), occurring within 100 km from a selection of 18 coastal cities. The STORM_ISLANDS contains return periods at fixed wind speeds and wind speeds at fixed return periods (on two seperate sheets), occurring within 100 km from the capital city of an island. We included the Small Island Developing States and a set of other islands.</span

STORM EC-Earth present climate synthetic tropical cyclone tracks

Datasets consisting of 10,000 years of synthetic tropical cyclone tracks, generated using the Synthetic Tropical cyclOne geneRation Model (STORM) algorithm (see Bloemendaal et al, Generation of a Global Synthetic Tropical cyclone Hazard Dataset using STORM, in prep.). The dataset is generated using data the EC-Earth model and resembles present-climate conditions. The data can be used to calculate tropical cyclone risk in all (coastal) regions prone to tropical cyclones.</span

STORM IBTrACS present climate synthetic tropical cyclone tracks

Datasets consisting of 10,000 years of synthetic tropical cyclone tracks, generated using the Synthetic Tropical cyclOne geneRation Model (STORM) algorithm (see Bloemendaal et al, Generation of a Global Synthetic Tropical cyclone Hazard Dataset using STORM, in review). The dataset is generated using historical data from IBTrACS and resembles present-climate conditions. The data can be used to calculate tropical cyclone risk in all (coastal) regions prone to tropical cyclones. VERSION UPDATE (30 Sept 2020): The Saffir-Simpson category thresholds were wrongly calculated in the previous version, this has now been corrected. VERSION UPDATE (18 March 2021): The old version of STORM contained some duplicate cyclone tracks. These have now been removed.</span

UPDATE 22/06/2023: Tom Russell (Oxford University) and colleagues have created global-scale .tiff files for this dataset, you can download them here: https://zenodo.org/record/7438145UPDATE 30/05/2022:&nbsp;The data directory now also contains .tif files for the fixed wind speeds and fixed return period maps. These .tif files can be used in GIS applications in case the netcdf-files cannot be loaded in. A special thanks to Bastian Manz for writing the code to create the tif files!&nbsp;Datasets containing tropical cyclone maximum wind speed (in m/s) return periods, generated using the STORM datasets (see https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-020-0381-2).
