Summary
These data represent monthly averaged values of selected variables for ENSEMBLES (http://www.ensembles-eu.org). The list of output variables can be found in: http://ensembles.wdc-climate.de/output-variables. The model output corresponds to the IPCC AR4 "climate of the 20th Century experiment (20C3M)".

The 20th century simulation (1860-2000) is forced with changes of greenhouse gas concentations (CO2, CH4, N2O, CFC-11* and CFC-12), ozone and sulfate aerosols.

These datasets are available in netCDF format.
The dataset names are composed of
- centre/model acronym (INGVCE: Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia / Carbon - Earth system model)
- scenario acronym (20C3M)
- run number (1: run 1)
- time interval (MM:monthly mean)
- variable acronym [with level value] (e.g. hur850: relative humidity, 850 hPa)
example: INGVCE_20C3M_1_MM_hur850

Technical data to this experiment:
The model, named INGV Carbon Earth System Model (INGV C-ESM), is an evolution of the SINTEX-F model (Fogli et al. 2009 in preparation, Gualdi et al., 2003a, 2003b; Guilyardi et al., 2003, Luo et al. 2003).
The ocean component is the OPA 8.2 model (Madec et al., 1998), with the ORCA2 configuration: 2x2 degrees cos(latitude) with increased meridional resolutions to 0.5 degree near the equator, 31 vertical levels. The evolution of the sea-ice is described by the LIM model (Louvain-La-Neuve sea-ice model; Fichefet and Morales Maqueda, 1997, 1999; Timmermann et al., 2005), which is a thermodynamic-dynamic snow sea-ice model.
The atmospheric component is the ECHAM5 model (Roeckner et al., 2003, 2006), with T31 horizontal resolution and 19 hybrid sigma-pressure levels. The coupling information, without flux corrections, is exchanged every 1 day by means of the OASIS 3 coupler (Valcke et al., 2007). The dynamical vegetation and land surface component is the SILVA model (Alessandri, 2006; Alessandri et al., 2007) and the marine biogeochemistry uses the PELAGOS model (Vichi et al., 2007a,b).
