Köppen-Geiger climate zone classification
The predominant (modal) climate zone of the catchments is coded using Köppen-Geiger classification published in [Beck2018] and given below.
The climate zone for each reservoir/catchment is stored in the variable c_climate_zone.
The below table is reproduced from the supplementary materials/associated data in [Beck2018].
