European circulation indices calculated from the UKCP Global (60km) climate projections from 1900-2100 under RCP8.5 produced by the Met Office in 2018. These indices represent large scale circulation variability and they include: (i) the daily latitude and strength of the Atlantic Jet Stream; (ii) the daily ‘weather type’ (1-8 or 1-30) which is based on a classification scheme for the daily large scale synoptic situation; (iii) the average winter Atlantic pressure gradient between Iceland and Gibraltar representing the winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The indices are available for each member in the set of 28 global projections, which is a combination of 15 coupled model simulations produced by the Met Office Hadley Centre, and 13 coupled simulations from CMIP5 contributed by different climate modelling centres. The indices included are either daily or monthly. Although they are based on data from the global runs on an N216 (60km) grid, these indices have a single value per timestep and have no latitude-longitude dimension.

CMIP5 monthly mean climatology fields matching those given in IPCC WG1 AR5 Annex I: Atlas of Global and Regional Climate Projections in Climate Change 2013, the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Climatologies have been calculated for global fields of Specific Humidity, Precipitation, Sea Level Pressure, Temperature, Wind and Downwelling Shortwave Radiation (Stoker et. al., 2013). The CMIP5 climatologies, calculated by the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA), match those described in table AI.1 in Stoker et al (2013). Twenty- and thirty-year climatologies and climatological anomalies are calculated for experiments: piControl, 1pctCO2, historical, rcp26, rcp45, rcp60 and rcp85 produced by 39 models from 22 modelling centres. The monthly climatology data covers the period from 1850-2100. The climatologies are of global scope and are provided on latitude-longitude grids.

Global climate model projections for the CMIP5 RCP8.5 emissions scenario produced as part of the UK Climate Projection 2018 (UKCP18) project. Data has been produced by the UK Met Office Hadley Centre, and provides information on changes in 21st century climate for the UK, helping to inform adaptation to a changing climate. The set of 28 projections is a combination of 15 coupled model simulations produced by the Met Office Hadley Centre, and 13 coupled simulations from CMIP5 contributed by different climate modelling centres. This data set provides information on changes in climate across the entire globe from 1900 to 2100 for RCP8.5. Each projection provides an example of climate variability in a changing climate, which is consistent across many climate variables at different times and spatial locations. This dataset contains 60km for the UK only on the Ordnance Survey's British National Grid.
