Abstract

WCRP CMIP5: College of Global Change and Earth System Science (GCESS) BNU-ESM model output for the AMIP (amip) experiment. These data cover the following realms: aerosol, atmos, land and landIce; at the following frequencies: 6hr, day and mon. The runs included the ensemble member: 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).
