The data provided are ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic (ICON) Atmospheric Global Circulation Model (GCM) data for global radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE) 2-year simulations with a circulation idealised island. Data files are provided in NetCDF format. The RCE simulations are setup on an aquaplanet with no rotation and no diurnal cycle. To initialise the RCE state, homogenised boundary conditions are set where the solar insolation is 551.58 Wm-2 with a fixed zenith angle of 42.05°. Together these values give a constant insolation of 409.6 Wm-2. This is equivalent to the annual mean tropical insolation (Wing et al., 2018). A 360-day calendar is used. The global ocean albedo is set to 0.07. Concentrations of tracers CO2, CH4, N2O and O2 are set to be constant in space and time and the O3 profile is the same as used in Popke et al. (2013). SSTs are kept globally constant throughout each simulation at 305K. Model output is given every 10 days (for the 10dayouput files), and every 4 hours (for the 4houroutput files). Most simulations have been run with interactive radiation. However, in some, radiative feedbacks have been turned off by horizontally homogenising the radiative cooling rates at each model level and timestep. These files are indicated by homogLW and homogSW in the file names respectively. Simulations also have a circular, idealised island, centred at lat/lon=0 degrees. Island is modelled using the Jena Scheme for Biosphere-Atmosphere Coupling in Hamburg 4 (JSBACH4) model, coupled to the ICON GCM. This land is initialised with tropical rainforest vegetation. The island has a radius of 40 degrees, except for data in the different_islandsize file where the island radius varies from 10 to 80 degrees (as indicated in the variable names).

ICON was run on the R02B04 grid, which has an approximate horizontal grid-spacing of 160km. The vertical resolution is set by assigning 47 stretched model levels between the surface and model top at 83km.
