Continuation part of CMIP5/PMIP3 HadCM3 past1000 simulation
Numerical climate output from the HadCM3 climate model simulation runs for the NERC funded Euroclim500 project: Causes of change in European mean and extreme climate over the past 500 years. These data were produced by ... -
Agronomic trait and floral resource data
Mass-flowering crops, such as oilseed rape (OSR; Brassica napus), provide pulses of nectar and pollen helping to support pollinators and their pollination services, in agricultural landscapes. Despite their value to ... -
The Impact of Climate Change and Climate Extremes on Sugarcane Production
We combine the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere model with detailed timeseries measurements from experimental sugarcane plots in Guangxi, China, and São Paulo State, Brazil. We first calibrated and validated modelled carbon and water ... -

HadCM3 Model data used in the article "Disentangling the causes of the 1816 European year without a summer" by Schurer, Andrew; Hegerl, Gabriele; Luterbacher, Juerg; Broennimann, Stefan; Cowan, Tim; Tett, Simon; Zanchettin, Davide; Timmreck, Claudia
Abstract: The European summer of 1816 has often been referred to as a “year without a summer” due to anomalously cold conditions and unusual wetness, which led to widespread famines and agricultural failures. The cause ... -
