Stochastic Weather Generator Output for Selected Warming Scenarios for the Nashua River Watershed in Massachusetts
The datasets are gridded daily precipitation and minimum and maximum temperature for a period of 64 years for warming scenarios of 0 to 8 degrees Celsius, by 0.5 degrees for the Nashua River watershed in Massachusetts. The data are output from a Stochastic Weather Generator developed at Cornell University (Steinschneider and Najibi, 2022) and includes 100 ensembles of each warming scenario. The data files are in NetCDF format (https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/).
