NetCDF files containing maps of return periods (in years) for the joint occurrence of strong surface winds (sfcWind) and heavy rain (pr) and heatwaves (EHF) and drought (SPI) as realised by models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Round 6 (CMIP6). Included is output from models that provided daily data for sfcWind, pr, tmax and tmin (to calculate EHF) and experiments historical, SSP126, SSP245, and SSP585 for ensemble member r1i1p1f1. The base period for the determination of hazard thresholds was 1980 – 2014 for all experiments. Time periods over which return periods were calculated were 1980 – 2014 for the 'historical' experiment and 2066 – 2100 for experiments 'SSP126', 'SSP245', and 'SSP585'. Values for return periods are determined following the method in Ridder et al. (2020a) doi: 10.1038/s41467-020-19639-3; Ridder et al. (2020b) doi: 10.1029/2020GL091152 and Ridder et al.
