Abstract

This dataset includes the Met Office DePreSys model output prepared for SPECS decadal (1960-2005). These data were prepared by the Met Office Hadley Centre, as part of the SPECS project.

Model id is DePreSys3 (DePreSys3: HadGEM3-GC2 N216; atmosphere: UM (GA5.0) ; ocean: NEMO (v3.4, ORCA0.25) ; coupler: OASIS3 (v3.3); sea ice: CICE), frequency is daily and monthly.

Daily Atmospheric variables are:
pr psl tas

Monthly atmos variables:
hfls hfss mrso pr psl rls rlut rsdt rss rsut ta tas ua va zg

Monthly seaIce variables:
sic sit

Ocean variables:
tos
