Description
This data set is derived from three idealised modelling experiments that were performed with the global numerical weather prediction model, OpenIFS. Three aqua-planet experiments were performed that differed only in their sea surface temperatures. There was a control simulation, case where the sea surface temperatures were warmed everywhere by 4K and a case where the polar sea surface temperatures were increased by 5K. In all three experiments, the extra-tropical cyclones were identified. The data presented in this data set is the maximum vorticity and precipitation of all of these extra-tropical cyclones. This data set is used by Sinclair and Catto (2023) in their study.
