Future Weather Variables dataset

A global dataset at 0.1° resolution of 9 weather variables from 5 climate models under 3 Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) scenarios from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). The time resolution is daily from 1981 to 2100.
