2.2.2. Extremes Indices

For the assessment of model runs for extremes, the ETCCDI extremes indices are utilized. The annual extremes of the daily CMIP5 data were acquired from the ETCCDI extremes indices archive [25,26], provided at the "Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis". This data was indirectly obtained and downloaded through the "KNMI Climate Explorer", which is a web-based research tool to investigate climate and climate change.
