Water, carbon and energy fluxes simulation for Great Britain using the JULES Land Surface Model and the Climate Hydrology and Ecology research Support System me

The dataset contains daily and monthly surface water, energy and carbon fluxes, and state variables for Great Britain over the period between 1961 and 2015. The data was obtained from a 55 years simulation with the JULES Land Surface Model, at 1 km spatial resolution and driven by the meteorological dataset CHESS-met v1.2 (Robinson et al., 2017; https://doi.org/10.5285/b745e7b1-626c-4ccc-ac27-56582e77b900). The data comes in both monthly (all variables) and daily (only variables with no z dimens

Useful for

Use cases llm-inferred
Catchment water balance and runoff baseline for flood risk or drainage studies · Soil moisture and evapotranspiration context for hydrological or climate-change assessments · Carbon and energy flux context for natural capital or ecohydrology assessments

hydrologists · flood consultants · drainage engineers · environmental consultants · ecologists · climate and water resource analysts

Limitations

Constraints llm-inferred
CEH Noncommercial Licence: commercial consultancy use needs checking with the licence terms · Model simulation output, not observations; period ends 2015 · Scripted download requires a personal access token · Daily files contain only variables with no z dimension · Entry licence field ('Non-Open government licence') does not match the CEH Noncommercial Licence named in the docs · NetCDF format needs suitable tooling
