TL;DR: The European CORDEX (EURO-CORDEX) initiative as discussed by the authors is a large voluntary effort that seeks to advance regional climate and Earth system science in Europe, which includes the design and coordination of ongoing ensembles of regional climate projections of unprecedented size and resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the first-of-its-kind ensemble climate experiments of convection permitting models to investigate present and future convective processes and related extremes over Europe and the Mediterranean.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present six hindcast WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting model) simulations for the EURO-CORDEX (European Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment) domain with different configurations in microphysics, convection and radiation for the time period 1990-2008.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used eddy covariance data acquired by the FLUXNET community to support the EuroO•CORDEX initiative. But the authors did not consider the use of the data in their work.

TL;DR: This paper performed simulations with the WRF regional climate model at 12 and 3-km grid resolution for the current and future climates over Central Europe and evaluated their added value with a focus on the daily cycle and frequency distribution of rainfall and the relation between extreme precipitation and air temperature.
