Acknowledgements

CMIP5

We thank the World Climate Research Program Coupled Modeling Working Group, responsible for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP), and the climate modeling groups (listed in Table 1) who produced and made available their models. Our thanks also go to the U.S. Department of Energy's Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison, which coordinates the support and directed development of CMIP's software infrastructure in partnership with the Global Organization for Earth System Science Portals.

CORDEX-NA

We acknowledge the World Climate Research Programme's Working Group on Regional Climate, and the Working Group on Coupled Modelling, former coordinating body of CORDEX and responsible panel for CMIP5. We also thank the climate modelling groups (listed in Table 2) for producing and making available their model output. We also acknowledge the U.S. Department of Defense ESTCP for its support of the NA-CORDEX data archive. Website: https://na-cordex.org/

ClimEx

The production of ClimEx was funded within the ClimEx project by the Bavarian State Ministry for the Environment and Consumer Protection. The CRCM5 was developed by the ESCER centre of Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM; www.escer.uqam.ca) in collaboration with Environment and Climate Change Canada. We acknowledge Environment and Climate Change Canada's Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis for executing and making available the CanESM2 Large Ensemble simulations used in this study, and the Canadian Sea Ice and Snow Evolution Network for proposing the simulations. Computations with the CRCM5 for the ClimEx project were made on the SuperMUC supercomputer at Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The operation of this supercomputer is funded via the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Bavarian State Ministry of Education, Science and the Arts.
