Selected austral summer Atmospheric River cases over the Antarctic Peninsula, 2001 - 2022.

Six-hourly IVT maps from Polar WRF D01 simulations (30 km resolution) are provided for all selected AR cases over the Antarctic Peninsula from 2001 to 2022, based on the gridded Polar AR scale dataset. Full PWRF outputs are included for five representative AR events, while selected surface variables (surface energy balance components, 2m temperature, and 10m wind) are available for the remaining events. All selected AR events are cross-checked against an independent dataset, the Global Atmospheric Rivers Database, Version 4 (Guan, 2025). Code for data preprocessing, analysis, and visualization is also archived and publicly available.
