This dataset contains post-processed rainfall forecast (hincast) data used in the study "Improving the reliability of sub-seasonal forecasts of high and low flows by using a flow-dependent non-parametric model" by McInerney et al. (2021).

This dataset was produced by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.

Rainfall forecasts are produced using the Australian Community Climate Earth-System Simulator - Seasonal (ACCESS-S Version 1) (Hudson et al., 2017).

The ACCESS-S forecasts are then post-processed to reduce biases and improve reliability (Schepen et al., 2018).
