Abstract

WCRP CMIP5: The NSF-DOE-NCAR team CESM1-BGC model output for the RCP8.5 (rcp85) experiment. These data cover the following realms: atmos, land, landIce, ocean, ocnBgchem and seaIce; at the following frequencies: day, fx, mon and yr. 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).

The NSF-DOE-NCAR team consisted of the following agencies: National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
