Meteorological Time Series Aligned with Projected Temperature Changes

This dataset provides 50 years of seasonal synthetic hourly time series for five meteorological variables: incoming shortwave radiation, total precipitation, relative humidity, 2-meter air temperature and wind speed. The data are generated from observational records (1990–present) from nine MeteoSwiss stations (ABO, BAS, BER, LUG, PUY, SCU, SIO, STG, WFJ). We use a sampling approach that preserves both the temporal structure and inter-variable dependencies. Specifically, the time series are constructed by drawing 7-day blocks from historical observations, ensuring realistic short-term variability and maintaining the physical coherence between variables. The synthetic sequences are constrained to follow daily temperature change trajectories corresponding to three future climate scenarios for the period 2040–2070: RCP2.6, RCP8.5 and RCP0: a counterfactual scenario with no long-term warming trend, but with temperature variability consistent with the RCP2.6 one. The temperature constraints are derived from projections downscaled at the staiton level, available at: https://www.envidat.ch//metadata/climate-change-scenarios-at-hourly-resolution Resource Title: Data link Size: 377487360 bytes Format: No Info URL: https://envicloud.wsl.ch/#/?bucket=https%3A%2F%2Fos.zhdk.cloud.switch.ch%2Fenvicloud%2F&prefix=doi%2Fenvidat.680%2F
