This data set is derived from three idealised modelling experiments that were performed with the global numerical weather prediction model, OpenIFS. Three aqua-planet experiments were performed that differed only in their sea surface temperatures. There was a control simulation, case where the sea surface temperatures were warmed everywhere by 4K and a case where the polar sea surface temperatures were increased by 5K. In all three experiments, the extra-tropical cyclones were identified. The data presented in this data set is the maximum vorticity and precipitation of all of these extra-tropical cyclones. This data set is used by Sinclair and Catto (2023) in their study. Sinclair, V. A. and Catto, J. L.: The relationship between extra-tropical cyclone intensity and precipitation in idealised current and future climates, Weather Clim. Dynam. Discuss. [preprint], https://doi.org/10.5194/wcd-2022-62, in review, 2022.
