Supporting data for “Climate Intervention through Stratospheric Aerosol Injection may partially mitigate marine heatwaves"

Although climate intervention aims to lower the global average temperature, the potential impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on marine heatwaves (MHW) has not been thoroughly examined. This spatial dataset provides global and regional MHW metrics—such as frequency, maximum intensity, and duration—from the Community Earth System Model, version 2 (CESM2), using the baseline scenario SSP2-4.5, referred to as a no climate intervention scenario, and the ARISE-SAI ensemble. The ARISE-SAI model uses the SSP2-4.5 scenario, introducing stratospheric aerosol injection at approximately 21 km in 2035, aiming to keep global mean surface air temperature near 1.5°C for ARISE-SAI-1.5 and near 1.0°C for ARISE-SAI-1.0 above pre-industrial levels. The dataset includes global MHW properties for the historical period (1990-2009), the current period under SSP2-4.5 emission scenario (2015-2034), and future scenarios under SSP2-4.5, ARISE-SAI-1.5, and ARISE-SAI-1.5 for 2050-2059 and 2060-2069.

Cascade Project at North Temperate Lakes LTER: Aquatic heatwave effects on chlorophyll 2008-2019

Temperature and chlorophyll data were collated from multiple datasets to identify the effects of aquatic heatwaves on phytoplankton in three north temperate lakes, Peter Lake, Paul Lake, and Tuesday Lake between 2008 and 2019. Heatwaves were identified using a water temperature model constructed from temperature data from Sparkling Lake and Woodruff Airport between 1989 and 2022. Heatwave characteristics, water color, nutrients, grazing, and lake stability data are included to relate chlorophyll response to heatwaves to other conditions associated with a set of whole-lake experiments. The food web of Peter Lake was manipulated with largemouth bass additions between 2008 and 2011. Nutrient additions were made to Peter Lake and Tuesday Lake between 2013 and 2015, and again in Peter Lake in 2019. Paul Lake was always maintained as an unmanipulated reference lake. Full descriptions of the experiments can be found in Szydlowski et al., "Aquatic heatwaves increase surface chlorophyll concentrations in experimental and reference lakes."

Predictability Limit of the 2021 Pacific Northwest Heatwave from Deep-Learning Sensitivity Analysis

<p>The attached two datasets are the optimized inputs used to analyze predictability limits in the paper Predictability Limit of the 2021 Pacific Northwest Heatwave from Deep-Learning Sensitivity Analysis. Specifically, the datasets correspond to the inputs used to produce the blue (global) and green (regional) loss curves in Figure S2. They are NetCDF files of dimensions batch (1), time (2), latitude (181), longitude (360), pressure levels (13), and may be run as Graphcast model inputs to initiate a forecast at 00 UTC 20 June 2021. Both datasets have been systematically perturbed to reduce the Graphcast model's loss function, which minimizes forecast eror as described in the manuscript. The global input seeks to reduce the loss over the entire globe, while the regional input seeks only to minimize error within the Pacific Northwest (42N to 60N and 130W to 110W). The optimized inputs result in a reduction of the loss by approximately 85% (global) and 93% (regional) when compared to a control Graphcast forecast without perturbations.</p>

The columns are:</p> <ul> <li><strong>region</strong>: unique identifier of the corresponding EUROSTAT NUTS_ID.</li> <li><strong>start</strong>: first date of the heatwave.</li> <li><strong>tmax</strong>: maximum temperature reached during the heatwave.</li> <li><strong>intensity</strong>: the sum of the degrees of the maximum and minimum temperatures over their corresponding thresholds.</li> <li><strong>duration</strong>: duration of the heatwave.</li> </ul> <p>Future_and_baseline_eobs_heatwaves_Europe.csv: ensemble future projections of heatwaves. The columns are:</p> <ul> <li><strong>hazard_level</strong>: it can be a warning, an alert or an alarm.</li> <li><strong>region</strong>: unique identifier of the corresponding EUROSTAT NUTS_ID.</li> <li><strong>experiment</strong>: emission scenario. It can be baseline, rcp-4-5 or rcp-8-5.</li> <li><strong>period</strong>: it can be 1981-2010 for the baseline or 2011-2040, 2021-2050, 2031-2060, 2041-2070, 2051-2080, 2061-2090 or 2071-2100 for the future.</li> <li><strong>decade_frequency</strong>: decade mean frequency. In the case of the future this is the ensemble of the models.</li> <li><strong>decade_frequency_best</strong>: only applicable to the future. It determines the best projection among the models.</li> <li><strong>decade_frequency_worst</strong>: only applicable to the future. It determines the worst projection among the models.</li> <li><strong>year_days</strong>: average annual days.</li> <li><strong>year_tmax_intensity</strong>: the average annual degrees of the maximum temperature over its corresponding threshold.</li> <li><strong>year_tmin_intensity</strong>: the average annual degrees of the minimum temperature over its corresponding threshold.</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p>
