Abstract

WCRP CMIP5: Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) GFDL-CM3 model output for the Pre-Industrial Control (piControl) experiment. These data cover the following realms: aerosol, atmos, land, landIce, ocean and seaIce; at the following frequencies: 3hr, day, fx and mon. The runs included the ensemble members: r0i0p0 and r1i1p1.

The WCRP Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 5 (CMIP5), was a global climate model intercomparison project, coordinated by PCMDI (Program For Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison) on behalf of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) and provided input for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
