AUS2200_Lismore_flood_simulations_20220222-20220307

<p dir="ltr">This dataset contains numerical simulations covering the time period 22 February 2022 - 07 March 2022, corresponding to very heavy rainfall on the east coast of Australian and catastrophic flooding in Lismore. The simulations are run with the ACCESS model, with a horizontal grid of 2.2 km.</p><p dir="ltr">The dataset consists of four versions of the same model:</p><ul><li>Flood-c: Free running version nested in ERA5 (no reinitialization)</li><li>Flood-r: Restart version nested in ERA5 – model reinitialised every 24 hours with 12-hour spin-up</li><li>Flood-barra: Restart version nested in BARRA1 reanalysis</li><li>Flood-barra-soil: Restart version nested in ERA5, but with BARRA1 reanalysis soil moisture</li></ul><p dir="ltr">Model variables saved are:</p><ul><li>uas - 10 metre wind u component</li><li>vas - 10 metre wind v component</li><li>reflmax - maximum_radar_reflectivity_in_the_grid_column_due_to_all_hydrometeors</li><li>prals - stratiform rain amount (simulations are convection permitting, so this includes all rainfall)</li></ul><p><br></p>
