PRIMAVERA was a European Union Horizon 2020 project whose primary aim was to generate advanced and well-evaluated high-resolution global climate model datasets, for the benefit of governments, business and society in general. Following consultation with members of the insurance industry, we have used a PRIMAVERA multi-model ensemble to generate a European winter windstorm event set for use in insurance risk analysis, containing approximately 1300 years of windstorm data. The uploaded dataset contains the model and re-analysis windstorm footprints in netcdf format and documentation of the data. Further information is given in Lockwood et al., Using high-resolution global climate models from the PRIMAVERA project to create a European winter windstorm event set, Nat. Hazards Earth Syst. Sci. Discuss. [preprint], https://doi.org/10.5194/nhess-2022-12, in review, 2022. Any products or applications which use this dataset must state the following attribution “Acknowledgment to the PRIMAVERA partners. The information/material contained has been produced with funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research & Innovation Programme under grant agreement no. 641727.”
