ENSEMBLES ECHAM5-MPI-OM 20C3M run2, monthly mean values

Roeckner, Erich

Experiment
20C3MECHAM5ENSEMBLES Stream1IPCC-AR4MPIOM
Summary
These data represent 6 hourly and 12 hourly instantaneous 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 was prepared for the IPCC Fourth Assessment climate of the 20th Century experiment (20C3M).

The 20th century simulation (including year 2000) with observed anthropogenic forcings (CO2, CH4, N2O, CFCs, O3 and sulfate) is initialized in year 2215 of the preindustrial control run. This is followed by a commitment experiment for the 21th century (years 2001-2100) with all concentrations fixed at their levels of year 2000.

These datasets are available in netCDF format.
The dataset names are composed of
- centre/model acronym (e.g. MPEH5: Max-Planck-Institute/Echam5)
- scenario acronym (e.g. SRA2: SRES A2)
- run number (e.g. 1: run 1)
- time interval (MM:monthly mean, DM:daily mean, DC:diurnal cycle, 6H:6 hourly, 12h:12hourly)
- variable acronym [with level value] (e.g. hur850: relative humidity, 850 hPa)
--> example: MPEH5_SRA2_1_MM_hur850

For this experiment 3 ensemble runs were carried out.

Technical data to this experiment:
The experiment used ECHAM5.2.02a (T63L31) coupled to MPI-OM Vers. 1.0 (GR1.5L40) and was run on a NEC-SX (hurrikan).
The output from the model run is stored in: hurrikan.dkrz.de:/ut/m/m214002/EXP500/run523
