Description

Kilian Hochholzer and co-authors present a 2026 data paper on daily weather records for Germany, past and future. The set covers 1981 to 2100 at one-kilometer detail. It blends recorded weather with nine future paths from three Earth models under three emissions routes. Values were corrected against the national weather service record.

To shrink the data, nearly 356,000 grid cells were grouped into 10,000 climate clusters. Grouping used long-term averages of five traits that drive plant growth, from temperature swings to dryness of air. Each cluster holds nine daily series through 2100. Files sit in databases with a map that ties clusters back to the grid. The authors say it is the first ready-to-use daily set of its kind for Germany. Impact studies can run far faster on it.
