These are non-exclusive grouping of CMIP variables (e.g. monthly time slices of the baseline variables). Variables can belong to more than one group.

| justification | Electricity generation through thermal power plants use river for cooling. On the other hand, river temperature is needed to study and avoid any major impact on biodiversity. Since river temperature is not provided by climate models, a hydrological thermal model is needed for its computation based on climate variables. Here are the needed variables. |
