These data are taken from the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP). Specifically, the data provide maximum daily surface air temperature (K) (abbreviated tasmax) for locations in the United States, Mexico, and Canada for the five consecutive days of May 15, 2041 to May 19, 2041 simulated using the Canadian Regional Climate Model (Caya and Laprise, 1999) forced by the Community Climate System Model atmosphere-ocean general circular model (Collins et al., 2006)
