Abstract

WCRP CMIP5: The CSIRO-QCCCE team CSIRO-Mk3-6-0 model output for the natural-only historical simulation (historicalNat) experiment. These data cover the following realms: aerosol, atmos, land, landIce, ocean and seaIce; at the following frequencies: 6hr, day, fx and mon. The runs included the ensemble members: r0i0p0, r1i1p1, r2i1p1, r3i1p1, r4i1p1 and r5i1p1.

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 CSIRO-QCCCE team consisted of the following agencies: The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO, Australia) and Queensland Climate Change Centre of Excellence (QCCCE).
