Description
Summary:This dataset corresponds to the following publication:Steinert, N., J., et al. 2023: Evaluating permafrost definitions for global permafrost area estimates in CMIP6 climate models, Environmental Research Letters, 10.1088/1748-9326/ad10d7https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ad10d7 Global permafrost regions are undergoing significant changes due to global warming, whose assessments often rely on permafrost extent estimates derived from climate model simulations. These assessments employ a range of definitions for the presence of permafrost, leading to inconsistencies in the calculation of permafrost area. This dataset contains permafrost area calculations using 10 different definitions for detecting permafrost presence based on either ground thermodynamics, soil hydrology, or air-ground coupling from an ensemble of 32 Earth System Models. This dataset includes two file archives:1. 32 CMIP6 models, 10 permafrost definitions, historical period (1850-2014), annual data2. 32 CMIP6 models, 10 ...
