AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
HUN AWRA-R simulation nodes v01

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple datasets. The source dataset is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



The dataset consists of an excel spreadsheet and shapefile representing the locations of simulation nodes used in the AWRA-R model. Some of the nodes correspond to gauging station locations or dam locations whereas other locations represent river confluences or catchment outlets which have no gauging. These are marked as "Dummy".

## **Purpose** 

Locations are used as pour points in oder to define reach areas for river system modelling.

## **Dataset History** 

Subset of data for the Hunter that was extracted from the Bureau of Meteorology's hydstra system and includes all gauges where data has been received from the lead water agency of each jurisdiction. Simulation nodes were added in locations in which the model will provide simulated streamflow.



There are 3 files that have been extracted from the Hydstra database to aid in identifying sites in each bioregion and the type of data collected from each on. These data were used to determine the simulation node locations where model outputs were generated. 



The 3 files contained within the source dataset used for this determination are:

Site - lists all sites available in Hydstra from data providers. The data provider is listed in the \#Station as _xxx. For example, sites in NSW are _77, QLD are _66.

Some sites do not have locational information and will not be able to be plotted. 

Period - the period table lists all the variables that are recorded at each site and the period of record.

Variable - the variable table shows variable codes and names which can be linked to the period table.



Relevant location information and other data were extracted to construct the spreadsheet and shapefile within this dataset.

HUN future climate rainfall v01

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



This is HUN rainfall data including the period 1953 to 2102 in netCDF format. This dataset was used as climate forcing to drive surface and groundwater modelling.



The seasonal scaling factors associated with CSIRO-Mk3.0 that are  +4.5%, -2.1%, -4.5% and -2.8% for summer, autumn, winter and spring are used to generate trended climate inputs for the years 2013 to 2102. The trends assume global warming of 1-degree for the period 2013 to 2042, compared to 1983 to 2012. The global warming for 2043 to 2072 is assumed to be 1.5 degrees and the corresponding scaling factors for this period are therefore multiplied by 1.5. The global warming for 2073 to 2102 is assumed to be 2 degrees.

## **Dataset History** 

The future climate rainfall data were obtained using the historical rainfall (1983-2012) multiplied by seasonal scaling factors.



The seasonal scaling factors associated with a global climate model- MRI (from the Meteorological Research Institute, Japan) are +5.4%, -3.4%, -8.1% and -1.8% for summer, autumn, winter and spring, respectively, and were used to generate trended climate inputs for the years 2013 to 2102. The trends assume global warming of 1-degree for the period 2013 to 2042, compared to 1983 to 2012. The global warming for 2043 to 2072 is assumed to be 1.5 degrees and the corresponding scaling factors for this period are therefore multiplied by 1.5. The global warming for 2073 to 2102 is assumed to be 2 degrees.



The scaling factors are applied to scale the daily precipitation in the climate input series that is generated for 2013 to 2102 (Zhang et al., 2016).

Gippsland mean annual rainfall

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme  from the national SILO data sets of climate station records. The parent dataset(s) is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



Gippsland Product 2-1 Climate Data Geodatabase v01   

This geodatabase contains the climate data used in the Gippsland Basin bioregion. The geodatabase includes the following datasets (average daily values): climate zones, evaporation, radiation, rainfall, evapotranspiration, maximum temperature and minimum temperature.

## **Purpose** 

To spatially represent interpolated mean annual rainfall (mm/yr) for the period 1957-2012- in Gippsland

## **Dataset History** 

The data was extracted from the national SILO data sets for 199 climate stations in the Gippsland region (see Lineage). The data was produced using ANUClim software (Hutchinson, 2001), using the interpolation methods discussed in Jeffery et al., 2001.



For a given climate station daily climate data is a combination of original measurements and rectified data to remove any gaps in the record using interpolation methods discussed in Jeffery et al. (2001). 



To account for sparsely located climate stations within Gippsland, mean daily rainfall were scaled to each solution point within the study area according to interpolated mean annual rainfall spatial layer created using the ANUClim software (Hutchinson 2001).
