 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/.

 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.

+
+The SAFRAN forcing is produced by Meteo-France at a 8km resolution (with a LambertIIE projection), with an hourly timestep (Vidal et al., 2010), over hydrological years (from Aug 1st to July 31st). The files have been obtained from the HyMEX portal, and prepared for ORCHIDEE by Nicolas Viovy and Fabienne Maignan for the 1959-2010, over civil years, with update for more recent years. The coordinate system is in decimal degrees (lat between 41.3 and 51.2°N; lon between -5.5 and 10.8°E).
+Modifications for the new driver (new attributes) have been done by Lucia Richiuso and Nicolas Vuichard in June 2021. 
+
+It must be noted that several versions of SAFRAN exist, the latest one being V2 in July 2021. The 1959-2010 files show no indication of version, and the 2011-2015 files correspond to V1-3L. 
+
+In July 2021, 57 years are available for ORCHIDEE. Years after 2015 are available in SAFRAN V2, but have not yet been formatted for ORCHIDEE owing to several problems.
