Hydroclimatology data collected from a variety of third party sources

This collection contains datasets used by the University of Adelaide hydroclimatology group, most of which has been obtained from third-party providers. Data include: <br>(1)Australian rainfall data (from 20,000 gauges at resolutions down to 5 minutes) from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology <br>(2)Radar data (three-dimensional images from radar) from the Bureau of Meteorology <br>(3)Climate model data from the Climate Model Intercomparison Project(CMIP) (http://cmip-pcmdi.llnl.gov/cmip5/) <br>(4)Regional climate model outputs from the University of NSW <br>(5)Australian catchment classifications <br>(6)Australia-wide data on soil type, etc. (various GIS layers) <br>(7)Australian Geofabric (Bureau of Meteorology) <br>(8)Historical cyclone coordinates <br>(9)Evaporation, pressure, humidity, temperature, sunshine hours <br>(10)Sea surface temperature data <br>(11)American hourly rainfall and temperature data<br><br>Greater than 1TB of data. Mostly text files and netCDF format

Onkaparinga Catchment Climate Change Modelling

Dataset comprises modelling outputs for the Goyder Climate Change investigation into streamflow in the Onkaparinga catchment. The dataset includes the following: - Catchment average rainfall, potential evapotranspiration and streamflow. - Daily rainfall and PET timeseries at each of the 22 SILO sites (15 GCMs for the historical, rcp 4.5 and rcp 8.5 time series = 45 zipped files. Each zipped file contains 2200 files, comprising 100 simulations for each of the 22 sites) - Daily catchment-average rainfall and PET timeseries (3 catchments, 15 GCMs, for the historical, rcp4.5 and rcp8.5 time series = 135 files) - Daily modelled streamflow timeseries (3 catchments, 15 GCMs, 4 hydrological models, for the historical, rcp4.5 and rcp8.5 time series = 540 files
