For each HADCM3 gridcell: An average precipitation was calculated
for 1961-1990 based on the simulated transient historical data. Result
is a 12 month simulated climatology at the scale of the HADCM3 grid.
For each forecast month a ratio anomaly was calculated (ex.
January_2021 / Mean_historical_January). Anomalies were capped at 5.0.
Result is a 100 year monthly set of precipitation anomalies at the
scale of the HADCM3 grid.
For each forecast month: Gridded anomalies were interpolated to a
½ degree grid using a bilinear interpolation. For each forecast
month and each ½ degree gridcell: The anomaly for that month is
mulitplied to the CRU historical precipitation (ex.
CRU_Mean_January_1961-1990 x January_2021_anomaly). Result is monthly
precipitation data for the years 2001-2100 at the ½ degree grid.
An average of the years 2070-2099 was produced. Result is a single
map of the average sum annual precipitation values.
