| 282 | === ISIMIP2B === |
| 283 | This dataset was build in the ISIMIP2b (Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project Phase 2b). The CMIP5 climate output from four GCMs were bias-corrected against a series of observational dataset. The methodology for the bias-correction can be found at: https://www.isimip.org/gettingstarted/isimip2b-bias-correction/. |

| 285 | Daily climate forcings are available at 0.5 degree spatial resolution. |
| 286 | The four GCMs are IPSL-CM5A-LR, GFDL-ESM2M, MIROC5, HadGEM2-ES. Each forcing includes five sets of time series, including picontrol (1661 onward; representing preindustrial climate), historical (1860-2005), rcp26 (2006-2099), rcp60 (2006-2099) and rcp85 (2006-2099). |

| 288 | The climate forcing for ORCHIDEE was prepared by Jinfeng Chang, using the TRENDY land mask (67420 grid cells). It was also upscaled at the 1 degree and 2 degree resolution for the ISIMIP2b simulations. |
