The aim of PALAEO-RA was to create a monthly, 3-dimensional climate reconstruction of the past 600 years. The basis is a 20-member ensemble with a state-of-the-art atmospheric general circulation model. We assimilate all available historical climate information, including early instrumental data, documentary data, and proxy data with an offline data assimilation technique. For more information on the project, visit https://www.palaeo-ra.unibe.ch/. The project output provided here consists of three parts: ModE-RA (main product), and ModE- RAclim (sensitivity experiment), and ModE-Sim, the original AGCM ensemble prior to data assimilation.

To reconstruct past climate fields an offline data assimilation approach is used, blending together information from an ensemble of transient atmospheric model simulations and observations. In the early period, ModE-RA utilizes natural proxies and documentary data, while from the 17th century onward instrumental measurements are also assimilated. The impact of each observation on the reconstruction is stored in the observation feedback archive, which provides additional information on the input data such as preprocessing steps and the regression-based forward models. The monthly resolved reconstructions include estimates of the most important climate fields. Furthermore, we provide a reconstruction, ModE-RAclim, which together with ModE-RA and the model simulations allows to disentangle the role of observations and model forcings. ModE-RA is best suited to study intra-annual to multi-decadal climate variability and to analyze the causes and mechanisms of past extreme climate events.","pubRank":"1"}],"site":[{"NOAASiteId":"22723","siteName":"Global","siteCode":null,"mappable":"N","locationName":"Geographic Region>Global","geo":{"geoType":"Feature","geometry":{"type":"POLYGON","coordinates":["-90","90","-180","180"]},"properties":{"southernmostLatitude":"-90","northernmostLatitude":"90","westernmostLongitude":"-180","easternmostLongitude":"180","minElevationMeters":null,"maxElevationMeters":null}},"paleoData":[{"dataTableName":"ModE-RA Global Valler2023","NOAADataTableId":"50804","earliestYear":1421,"mostRecentYear":2008,"timeUnit":"CE","earliestYearBP":529,"mostRecentYearBP":-58,"earliestYearCE":1421,"mostRecentYearCE":2008,"coreLengthMeters":null,"dataTableNotes":"Variables: 500, 300, 200 hPa geopotential height; 10m, 850, 500 hPa u-wind; 10m, 850, 500 hPa v-wind; 500 hPa vertical velocity alias omega; sea level pressure; 2m temperature; total precipitation.
