Long-term seasonally and annually aggregated climatic variables for the greater Phoenix, Arizona, USA, metropolitan area and the surrounding Sonoran desert, derived from single-day NASA Daymet images, 2000 to 2022

This data package consists of multiple decades of bioclimatic raster data across the Central Arizona-Phoenix Long-Term Ecological Research (CAP LTER) study area within metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona, USA, temporally aggregated by year and by four meteorological seasons (winter, spring, summer, fall). We sourced each bioclimatic variable from 1-km resolution gridded estimates of daily climatic data from NASA Daymet V4, including daily mean (ppt) and total precipitation (ppt_sum), daily maximum air temperature (temp_max), daily minimum air temperature (temp_min), incident shortwave radiation flux density (srad), and daily average partial pressure of water vapor (vp). For each of these six variables, we created temporally aggregated raster images by calculating mean pixel-values of each for each season and year, as well as producing a seventh variable of seasonally and annually summed precipitation (ppt_sum). Finally, we exported images as individual GeoTIFF raster files, each with five bands corresponding values summarized annually (band 1) and seasonally (bands 2-5). All imagery retrieval and data processing were completed with Google Earth Engine (Gorelick et al. 2017) and program R. A complete description of data processing methods, including the aggregation of imagery by year and season, can be found in the data package metadata (see 'Methods and Protocols') and accompanying Javascript code. ### citations - Gorelick N, Hancher M, Dixon M, et al.

CBC02 Winter-spring survival and response of birds to variable climate using mist-net captures at Konza Prairie

This dataset includes captures of small-bodied landbirds captured via passive mist-netting efforts. The objectives are to (a) initiate a long-term survey of the non-breeding birds of the site, (b) understand the behavioral and physiological mechanisms that allow birds to cope with the unpredictable, variable, and often harsh conditions during winter months, and (c) provide a training platform for students. The collection of this dataset is fully integrated into the teaching of “Wild Bird Research” (an undergraduate hands-on research course in the Division of Biology) and less formal instruction in bird research methods for graduate students. Additionally, the banding efforts have benefited from the engagement of Konza Prairie docents and frequently hosts class visits and other visitors interested in witness bird banding operations.

Climate change velocity metrics calculated for three climate variables across Finland

<p>This dataset contains files that show the climate change velocity metrics calculated for three climate variables across Finland. The climate velocities were used to study the magnitude of projected climatic changes in a nation-wide Natura 2000 protected area (PA) network (Heikkinen et al., 2020). Using fine-resolution climate data that describes the present-day and future topoclimates and their spatio-temporal variation, the study explored the rate of climatic changes in protected areas on an ecologically relevant, but yet poorly explored scale. The velocities for the three climate variables were developed in the following work, where in-depth description of the different steps in velocity metrics calculation and a number of visualisations of their spatial variation across Finland are provided:</p><p>Risto K.

These nine different velocity surfaces consist of velocity metric values measured for each 50-m grid cell separately for the three different climate variables and in relation to the three different future climate scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). The baseline climate data for the study were the monthly temperature and precipitation data averaged for the period from 1981 to 2010 modelled at a resolution of 50-m, based on which estimates for the annual temperature sum above 5 °C (growing degree days, GDD, °C), the mean January temperature (TJan, °C) and the annual climatic water balance (WAB, the difference between annual precipitation and potential evapotranspiration; mm) were calculated. Corresponding future climate surfaces were produced using an ensemble of 23 global climate models for the years 2070–2099 (Taylor et al. 2012) and the three RCPs. The data for the three climate variables for 1981–2010 and under the three RCPs will be made available in separately via METIS - FMI's Research Data repository service (Aalto et al., in prep.).&nbsp;</p><p>The climate velocity surfaces included in the present data repository were developed using climate-analog approach (Hamann et al. 2015; Batllori et al. 2017; Brito-Morales et al. 2018), whereby velocity metrics for the 50-m grid cells were measured based on the distance between climatically similar cells under the baseline and the future climates, calculated separately for the three climate variables. In Heikkinen et al. (2020), the spatial data for the Natura 2000 protected areas were used to assess their exposure to climate change.

Climate velocity has been typically used to assess the climatic risks for species and their populations, but velocity metrics can also be used to identify protected areas which face overall difficulties in retaining ecological conditions that promote present-day biodiversity.&nbsp;</p><p>Earlier climate velocity assessments have focussed on the domains of the mesoclimate (resolutions of 1–100 km) or macroclimate (&gt;100 km scales), and fine-grained (&lt;100 m) local climatic conditions created by variation in topography ('topoclimate'; Ackerly et al. 2010; 2020) have largely been overlooked (Heikkinen et al. 2020). This omission may lead to biased exposure assessments especially in rugged terrain (Dobrowski et al. 2013; Franklin et al. 2013), as well as a limited ability to detect sites decoupled from the regional climate (Aalto et al. 2017; Lenoir et al. 2017). This study provided the first assessment of the climatic exposure risks across a national PA (Natura 2000) network based on very fine-grained velocities of three established drivers of high latitude biodiversity.&nbsp;</p><p>The produce fine-grain climate velocity measures, 50-m resolution monthly temperature and precipitation data averaged for 1981–2010 were first developed, and based on it, the three bioclimatic variables (growing degree days, mean January temperature and annual climatic water balance) were calculated for the whole study domain. In the next phase, similar future climate surfaces were produced based on data from an ensemble of 23 global climate models, extracted from the CMIP5 archives for the years 2070–2099 and the three RCP scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5)26. In the final step, climate velocities for each the 50 x 50 m grid cells were measured using climate-analog velocity method (Hamann et al. 2015) and based on the distance between climatically similar cells under the baseline and future climates.</p><p>The results revealed notable spatial differences in the high velocity areas for the three bioclimatic variables, indicating contrasting exposure risks in protected areas situated in different areas. Moreover, comparisons of the 50-m baseline and future climate surfaces revealed a potential wholesale disappearance of current topoclimatic temperature conditions from almost all the studied PAs by the end of this century.</p><p><strong>Calculation of climate change velocity metrics for the three climate variables</strong></p><p>The overall process of calculation of climate velocities included three main steps.&nbsp;</p><p>(1) In the first step, we developed high-resolution monthly average temperature and precipitation data averaged over the years 1981–2010 and across the study domain at a spatial resolution of 50 × 50 m. This was done by building topoclimatic models based on climate data sourced from 313 meteorological stations (European Climate Assessment and Dataset [ECA&amp;D]) (Klok et al. 2009). Our station network and modelling domain covered the whole of Finland with an additional 100 km buffer. However, it was also extended to cover large parts of northern Sweden and Norway for areas &gt;66.5°N, as well as selected adjacent areas in Russia (for details see Heikkinen et al. 2020). This was done to capture the present-day climate spaces in Finland which are projected to move in the future beyond the country borders but have analogous climate areas in neighbouring areas; this was done to avoid developing a large number of velocity values deemed as infinite or unknown in the data for Finland.&nbsp;</p><p>The 50-m resolution average air temperature data were developed for the study domain using generalized additive modelling (GAM), as implemented in the R-package mgcv version 1.8–7 (R Development Core Team 2011; Wood 2011). In this modelling we utilised variables of geographical location (latitude and longitude, included as an anisotropic interaction), topography (elevation, potential incoming solar radiation, relative elevation) and water cover (sea and lake proximity), and subsequent leave-one-out cross-validation tests to assess model performance (for full process description, see Aalto et al. 2017; Heikkinen et al. 2020). The resulting topoclimate data effectively captured the physiographic effects of solar radiation and cold-air pooling.</p><p>To produce gridded precipitation data, we applied global kriging interpolation to the data from 343 rain gauges from the ECA&amp;D dataset. The interpolation was carried out using information on geographical location, topography (elevation and eastness index) and proximity to the sea and R package gstat. The eastness index was obtained from a sine-transforming aspect raster surface calculated from a 50 m × 50 m digital elevation model to capture the effect of prevailing westerly winds on the accumulated precipitation on windward slopes. The gridding was first run at a resolution of 500 × 500 m, whereafter gridded precipitation values were bilinearly interpolated into the same 50 × 50 m resolution as the air temperature data.&nbsp;</p><p>Next, the three bioclimatic variables ((i) growing degree days (GDD, °C days) indicating the accumulated warmth during the growing season; (ii) mean January air temperature - &nbsp;TJan, °C; (iii) climatic water balance - WAB, mm) were calculated for each 50 x 50 grid cell from the high-resolution gridded 1981–2010 ('baseline') climate data. Earlier research has demonstrated the ecological relevance of these three complementary variables which provide estimations of winter cold, seasonal warmth and moisture availability (Sykes et al. 1996; Luoto et al. 2006; Huntley et al. 2007, 2008).&nbsp;</p><p>Following Carter et al. (1991), GDD was calculated as the effective temperature sum above the base temperature of 5 °C as follows:</p><p><i>GDD</i>5 = <i>∑ni&nbsp;(Ti - Tb),&nbsp; if Ti -Tb &gt; 5</i></p><p>where Ti denotes the mean temperature at day i, Tb represents the base temperature, and n is the length of the summation period. However, because the daily air temperature data was not available, here the GDD was estimated using monthly data as in Araújo &amp; Luoto (2007). The WAB is the difference between the total annual precipitation sum and the potential evapotranspiration (PET), which was estimated from the monthly air temperatures following Skov and Svenning (2004):&nbsp;</p><p><i>PET&nbsp;</i>= 58.93 × <i>Tabove&nbsp;</i>0°<i>C </i>/ 12</p><p>(2) In the second step we developed data on future climates by using the climate projections from the ensemble of 23 global climate models (GCMs), derived from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 archives (Taylor et al. 2012). From these archives, we processed to predicted averaged changes in mean temperature and precipitation with respect to the baseline 1981–2010 for the years 2070–2099, and the three RCP scenarios (cf. Moss et al. 2010). As the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 climate scenario data represent coarse-scale resolution data, we converted it to match our fine-resolution baseline climate data by interpolation. For this, the climate model data depicting the predicted change in mean temperatures and precipitation with respect to the baseline climate were bilinearly interpolated to the 50 × 50 m grid system, and the change predicted by the GCMs was added to the spatially detailed baseline climate data. After this, the bioclimatic variables were recalculated for each RCP scenario to allow the calculation of climate change velocities across the whole country and the Natura 2000 protected areas.</p><p>(3) In the third step we developed climate change velocities for the three bioclimatic&nbsp;variables using the climate-analog approach (Hamann et al. 2015) where velocity is calculated by measuring the&nbsp;distance between present-day locations with certain climatic conditions and their future climate analogues,&nbsp;divided by the number of years between the two points in time. Thus, we calculated climate-analog velocities for the 50-m resolution grid climate data by measuring the distance between climatically&nbsp;similar grid cells for the present and future climates under RCP2.6,&nbsp;RCP4.5 and RCP8.5.&nbsp;</p><p>Prior the actual climate-analog velocity measurements, the climate variable surfaces were converted from continuous values into classified variable surfaces. For this, we defined the boundary values for the variable classes so that the climatically matching grid cells had their within-class ranges as small as possible but, at the same time, avoided artefactual extreme precision. After a set of pilot reclassifications, the following within-class ranges were applied: GDD, within-class range 50 °C with 51 categories; TJan, within-class range 0.5 °C with 60 categories; WAB, within-class range 50 mm with 55 categories. Next, using the reclassified present-day and future climate surfaces the search of the minimum distances between grid cells with similar present-day and future GDD/TJan/WAB climates were executed. The search was carried out using the ArcGIS software (Desktop 10.5.1.) by employing the Euclidean distance function. The minimum distances measured for each 50-m grid cell were divided by the difference between the mean points in the two time slices,&nbsp;1981–2010&nbsp;and 2070–2099.&nbsp;</p><p>The resulting 50-m resolution climate velocity surfaces for the three climate variables are provided in the zipped files included this data&nbsp;repository. In Heikkinen et al. (2020), these climate velocity data&nbsp;were employed in a series of subsequent analyses. For example, high-velocity areas ('velocity hotspots') of the three climate variables were visually compared with each other based on maps showing their 50-m resolution velocities across mainland Finland and the degree of overlap between the present-day range and projected future range of the three climate variables were investigated in each of the 5,068 Natura 2000 polygons included in the study.</p><p><strong>References</strong></p><p>Aalto, J., Riihimäki, H., Meineri, E., Hylander, K., Luoto, M., 2017.&nbsp;Revealing topoclimatic heterogeneity using meteorological station data.

Monthly climate variables of isotope-enabled climate model simulations over the last millennium (850-1849CE) version 2

<p>Here we provide climate fields in monthly resolution for five isotope-enabled model: ECHAM5-wiso (Sjolte et al. 2018, Werner et al. 2016), GISS-E2-R (Lewis and Legrande 2015, Colose et al 2016), iCESM (Brady et al. 2019, Stevenson et al 2019), iHadCM3 (B&uuml;hler et al. 2021, Tindall et al. 2009), and isoGSM (Yoshimura et al. 2008) in supplement to Buehler et al. (2021, submitted to Clim. Past. Discuss.). The model simulations were performed with different sets of boundary conditions as described in B&uuml;hler et al. (2021, submitted to Clim. Past. Discuss.) in line with the PMIP3 protocoll (Schmidt et al. 2012). We provide output for surface temperature (in K), total precipitation amount (in mm month^-1), evaporation (in mm month^-1), latent heat (in W m^-2), and oxygen isotope ratios of precipitation (in permil).<br> Additionally, we provide simulation output extracted at cave locations within the SISAL v.2. database (https://researchdata.reading.ac.uk/256/, Comas-Bru et al. (2020)). We include output for sites that pass the resolution and dating screening, meaning that have at least 2 radiometric dates (or are lamina-counted) and provide 36 oxygen isotope ratio measurements within the last millennium.</p> <p>For version 2, we updated the damaged ECHAM5 precipitation file and the time axis to the iCESM precipitation and tsurf files.</p>

Rodent declines track regional climate variability in North American drylands

Regional long-term monitoring can enhance the detection of biodiversity declines associated with climate change, improving future projections by reducing reliance on space-for-time substitution and increasing scalability. Rodents are diverse and important consumers in drylands, which cover ~45% of Earth’s land surface and face increasingly drier and more variable climates. Here, we analyzed abundance data for 22 rodent species across grassland, shrubland, ecotone, and woodland habitats in the southwestern USA. We captured two time series: 1995-2006 and 2004-2013 that coincide with phases of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), which influences drought in southwestern North America. Regionally, rodent species diversity declined 20-35%, with greater losses during the later time period. Abundance also declined regionally, but only during 2004-2013, with losses of ~5% of animals captured. During the first time series (PDO wet phase), plant productivity outranked climate variables as the best regional predictor of rodent abundance for 70% of taxa, whereas during the second period (dry phase), climate best explained rodent abundance for 60% of taxa. Temporal dynamics in rodent diversity and abundance differed spatially among habitats and sites, with the largest declines in woodlands and shrublands of central New Mexico and Colorado. Both habitat type and phase of the PDO modulated which species were winners or losers under increasing drought and amplified interannual variability in drought. Fewer taxa were significant winners (18%) than losers (30%) under drought, but the identities of winners and losers differed among habitats for 70% of taxa. Our results suggest that the sensitivities of rodent species to climate contributed to regional declines in diversity and abundance during 1995 - 2013. Whether these changes portend future declines in drought-sensitive consumers in the southwestern USA will depend on the climate during the next major phase of the PDO.

Two primers (Dp90, Dp377) failed to amplify in a consistent manner and were therefore excluded from further analysis.&nbsp;Amplified microsatellites were genotyped on an Applied Biosystems 3730 genetic analyser.&nbsp;We used the microsatellite plugin for Geneious 7.0.6&nbsp;(https://www.geneious.com)&nbsp;for peak calling and binning.

Percentage organic matter content (loss-on-ignition at 550 &deg;C,<em>OM%</em>) was used to correlate the two cores to each other and to a previously-dated sediment core (see Dane et al. 2020, Methods). The fluorescence derived parameter Parafac component C2 was used as an indicator of the abundance of purple sulphur bacteria. The organic carbon burial rate (<em>OC AR</em>, g C m&ndash;2 yr&ndash;1) was also calculated for this core (see Anderson et al. 2019). The <em>Daphnia</em> core was used for the microsatellite analyses and the accumulation rate of ephippia (<em>ephippia AR</em>) at the core site was estimated.</p> <p>For further details please see associated publication in Ecology and Evolution.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Global dataset for evaluating impact of topographic factors on hydrologic response to climate variability

<p>The dataset contained here was used to document the biomes in the world that show high sensitivity in their hydrologic response to interannual changes in climatic forcing during the 2001-2016 period, while evaluating the role of major topoclimatic factors in modulating these responses. To do this we generated a hydrologic sensitivity index (HSi). HSi evaluates the absolute ratio between the changes of the climatic conditions (dryness index, DI) and hydrologic response (evaporative index, EI<sub>R</sub>) between consecutive years (e.g. HSi= |∆ EI<sub>R</sub> /∆ DI|). HSi was computed for every successive pair of years from 2001 to 2016. &nbsp;A total of 15 HSi maps were obtained representing the HSi for each consecutive pair of years.&nbsp; For each map, where HSi &gt;1, regions are classified as <strong><em>Sensitive</em></strong> and for HSi &le;1, <strong><em>Resilient</em></strong>. To provide a synthesis of the general trend of global hydrologic sensitivity, we display the frequency of HSi, showing the recurrence of HSi &gt;1 for every non-ocean location with a range of 0 (low frequency) to 15 (high frequency). Regions where frequency HSi&ge;7 are considered highly recurring and as such are deemed as the most hydrologically sensitive.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>This dataset includes the code and raster data to evaluate the effect of the topography on HSi to&nbsp;plot the average frequency HSi for all elevations, aspects, and slope steepness against&nbsp; latitudinal change.</strong> We used global digital elevation models (DEMS) from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission&nbsp;(SRTM) data (90 m resolution; version 4, for latitudes &lt; 60◦ N and GTOPO30 (1◦ resolution; http://lta.cr.usgs.gov/GTOPO30) for latitudes &gt; 60◦ N. Slope and aspect maps were derived from the DEMs using standard GIS-based methods in ArcMap 10.7.Elevation range used is [0,7000] meters above sea level (m.a.s.l), aspect (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) specifically above slope values greater than 10-degrees (no flat areas used), and slope [0,90] degrees.</p> <p><strong>Contents:</strong></p> <ul> <li>1 MATLAB with the code ready to use</li> <li>1 PDF file with the same code</li> <li>27 geotiff files for elevation (dem#1-27.tif)</li> <li>27 geotiff files for frequency HSi (freq#1-27.tif)&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p>Note: the following&nbsp;files of slope and aspect could not upload in repository due to exceedance in storage limit: 50MG.

These scripts have been used to plot all the figures in the paper.</p><p>The script for the rare event algorithm is already available in the Supplementary material for "Rare event algorithm study of extreme warm summers and heatwaves over Europe" zenodo repository, available at https://zenodo.org/records/4763283.<br><br><strong>Simulation Architecture and model setup</strong></p><p>All the simulations have been performed with an intermediate complexity coupled climate model, composed by the Planet Simulator (PlaSim) and the Large Scale Geostrophic Ocean (LSG). All simulations are performed at stationary greenhouse gases forcing. More information about model setup and scope of the simulations can be found in the paper.<br><br>We performed 10 100-member ensemble simulations. First 125 years of the simulation are performed with the algorithm on (k=3). Then, simulations have been restarted at year 120 with the algorithm off (k=0) up to year 400. This last 380 years of simulation have been performed with only 20 members.<br><br><strong>y2480_k3_ntraj100</strong></p><p>y2480_k3_ntraj100.tar.gz contains the output of one ensemble simulation (y2480, i.e. the one that starts at year 2480 of the control run simulation) performed with the algorithm, i.e. contains data of 125 years simulation of 100 members.<br>Data is organized in blocks for each years. Every block contains the 4 NetCDF light file for each member and 4 files with full-size output that represent the mean state as the average of the 100 members. The 4 different file name accounts for the 4 different module output of the model: "data" for the atmosphere, "ice" for sea ice, "ocean" for the slab ocean layer in PlaSIM, lsg for LSG dynamical ocean.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Time Series</strong></p><p>Time series of the AMOC index are contained in 10 files representing the 10 different simulations performed. In each file are present 125 .txt files, one for each year of the simulation with the algorithm on, with the annual average AMOC indices of the 100 members, and 380 .txt files, one for each year of the simulation with the algorithm off, with the annual average AMOC indices of the 20 members.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Response Analysis REA</strong></p><p>Response Analysis REA contains the script that generates Fig.2, Fig. S3, Fig. S5, Fig. S6 and Fig. S7 of the paper. In general it provides tools for data analysis of the climate response to an AMOC slowdown. &nbsp;Be aware that data of the lsg module needs different processing.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>AMOC Evolution REA</strong></p><p>AMOC Evolution REA contains the script that generates Fig.1, Fig. 4, Fig. 5, Fig. 6 and Fig. S2 of the paper. In general it provides tools for analysis of time series and scatter plots of the AMOC evolution.&nbsp;<br><br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Causes REA</strong></p><p>Causes REA &nbsp;contains the script that generates Fig.3, Fig. S4 of the paper. . In general it provides tools for analysis of driving elements of the AMOC decline. More information about these methods can be found in the "Triggering mechanisms" section of the paper. &nbsp;Be aware that data of the lsg module needs different processing.&nbsp;</p>
