This dataset contains model output from the Community Earth System Model, Version 1 (CESM1; Hurrell et al., 2013) and variables from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast (ECMWF) Reanalysis v5 (ERA5; Hersbach et al., 2020). These data were used for analysis in “The location of large-scale soil moisture anomalies affects moisture transport and precipitation over southeastern South America”, published in Geophysical Research Letters.
