First version of the GitHub repository – Integration of datasets and models

This work is part of the work package WP5 “Demonstrator with steps towards an operational deployment” of the COMPASS project, whose overarching objective is to characterise compound extremes in current and future climates. COMPASS aims to develop a harmonized, yet flexible, methodological framework for climate and impact attribution of various complex extremes that include compound, sequential and cascading hazard events.

This task involved several important steps, including the development of an interface to facilitate the identification and searching of Copernicus datasets (including climate change services, disaster management services and land monitoring services) together with other EU-supported datasets (e.g. ERA5, EMO-1 meteorological observations, Eurostat), providing a search service for these resources in a machine-readable form. This interface is designed to facilitate efficient data retrieval and enable interoperability with different analytical platforms. It will serve as a streamlined access point for researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders to engage with these important datasets. Integration of existing and newly developed climate, exposure and vulnerability toolkits such as Bias-adjustment and Statistical Downscaling (BASD), Historical Analysis of Nature Hazards in Europe (HANZE) and ATTRIbuting Climate Impacts (ATTRICI – in progress) was also performed.

The workflow involves many steps, including:

  • Obtaining and loading data
  • ERA5 and ERA5-Land data processing
  • EMO-1 data processing
  • Data merging
  • Processing of merged ERA5-Land for BASD
  • Processing of merged EMO-1 data
  • Processing of merged EMO-1 data for BASD
  • BASD with ISIMIPBASDv3.0.2
  • Convert BASD ERA5-Land to EMO-1 format
  • Final post-processing of ERA5-Land data
  • Modification in tasks to adapt to daily data
  • Daily, monthly and yearly mean values
  • LISVAP model

The code is under development and this file will be updated to reflect the current updates on the project.
