Abstract

The World Climate Research Program (WCRP) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 6 (CMIP6) data from the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (NASA GISS) GISS-E2-1-G model output for the "historical well-mixed GHG-only run" (hist-GHG) experiment. These are available at the following frequencies: Amon, Emon, LImon, Lmon, Omon and SImon. The runs included the ensemble members: r1i1p1f1, r2i1p1f1, r3i1p1f1, r4i1p1f1 and r5i1p1f1.

CMIP6 was a global climate model intercomparison project, coordinated by PCMDI (Program For Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison) on behalf of the WCRP and provided input for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 6th Assessment Report (AR6).

The official CMIP6 Citation, and its associated DOI, is provided as an online resource linked to this record.
