WRF Simulation Dataset for Boise Rockies (Nov 2022 - July 2023)

This dataset contains output from a Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulation conducted over the Boise Rockies in Boise, Idaho, USA. The simulation spans from November 2022 to July 2023 and has been resampled to daily resolution. The dataset consists of eight experiments, each using different lateral boundary conditions (LBC) and microphysics schemes, as shown in the table below. The LBCs include the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis Version 2 (CFSRv2), and the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis 5 (ERA5). Each experiment contains the following atmospheric and surface variables: Variables Included: T2: 2-meter air temperature (K) PRCP: Accumulated total grid-scale precipitation (mm) SWDOWN: Downward shortwave radiation flux at the surface (Wm⁻²) CLDFRA: Cloud fraction (unitless) SNOW: Snow water equivalent (kg m⁻²) SNOWH: Physical snow depth (m) Name LBC Microphysics WS-CFS CFSRv2 WSM6 WS-ERA ERA5 WSM6 WD-CFS CFSRv2 WDM6 WD-ERA ERA5 WDM6 MOR-CFS CFSRv2 Morrison MOR-ERA ERA5 Morrison TH-CFS CFSRv2 Thompson TH-ERA ERA5 Thompson
