Slot: Percentile Reference Period End (percentile_reference_period_end)

End of the reference distribution.

Tier: conditionally_core

Why this slot matters

Together with the start date this pins down the reference distribution; an end date that includes or excludes the most recent warm years shifts the percentile threshold, so an open-ended baseline is not reproducible.

In plain terms

The other end of the stretch of past years used as the comparison — start and end together say exactly which years define "normal".
