    Daily time series of NZDI (New Zealand Drought Index) and its components (standardized precipitation index, soil moisture deficit, and potential evapotranspiration deficit) for the period 1972 to 2100, for 6 different global climate models and 4 different future scenarios (RCPs 2.6, 4.5, 6.0 and 8.5). Data will be provided on NIWA's VCSN (Virtual Climate Station Network) grid, comprising 11,591 points over New Zealand.

  • Many different datasets will be produced, such as: * Regional Climate Model (RCM, 12km) downscaling from NZ Earth System Model global simulations, for ensemble of initial conditions and future forcing (with UM) * Very-high resolution (1.5km) experimental data sets for sub-NZ domains (with UM) * High resolution (4km) experimental simulations with CSIRO CCAM model * Statistically downscaled RCM data onto 5km VCSN grid of the above simulations * NZ Drought Index and its 4 component indices on VCSN 5km grid for CMIP5 simulations (6 models, 4 RCPs)
