The Multivariate Adaptive\nConstructed Analogs (MACA) method is a statistical downscaling\nmethod which utilizes a training dataset (i.e. a meteorological\nobservation dataset) to remove historical biases and match spatial\npatterns in climate model output.\n\nThe MACA method was used to downscale the model output from 20\nglobal climate models (GCMs) of the Coupled Model Inter-Comparison\nProject 5 (CMIP5) for the historical GCM forcings (1950-2005) and\nthe future Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) RCP 4.5\nand RCP 8.5 scenarios (2006-2100) from the native resolution of\nthe GCMS to 4km.\n\nThis version contains monthly summaries.\n\nThe full list of models can be found at:\n\u003chttps://climate.northwestknowledge.net/MACA/GCMs.php\u003e\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n4638.3 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Units | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|----------|---------------|----------|-----------|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `tasmax` | K | 251.95\\* | 330.64\\* | meters | Monthly average of maximum daily temperature near surface |\n| `tasmin` | K | 239.47\\* | 316.2\\* | meters | Monthly average of minimum daily temperature near surface |\n| `huss` | Mass fraction | 0\\* | 0.03\\* | meters | Monthly average of mean daily specific humidity near surface |\n| `pr` | mm | 0\\* | 3691.91\\* | meters | Total monthly precipitation amount at surface |\n| `rsds` | W/m\\^2 | 15.84\\* | 419\\* | meters | Monthly average of mean daily downward shortwave radiation at surface |\n| `was` | m/s | 0.23\\* | 14.16\\* | meters | Monthly average of mean daily near surface wind speed |\n\n\\* estimated min or max value\n\n### Image Properties\n\n**Image Properties**\n\n| Name | Type | Description |\n|----------|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| scenario | STRING | Name of the CMIP5 scenario, one of 'rcp85', 'rcp45', or 'historical' |\n| model | STRING | Name of the CMIP5 model, eg 'inmcm4' |\n| ensemble | STRING | Either 'r1i1p1' or 'r6i1p1' |\n| month | DOUBLE | The index of the month in the year, ie 1-12 |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nThe MACA datasets were created with funding from the\nUS government and are in the public domain in the United States.\nFor further clarity, unless otherwise noted, the MACA datasets\nare made available with a Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal dedication.\nIn short, John Abatzoglou waives all rights to the work worldwide\nunder copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights,\nto the extent allowed by law.
