WCRP CMIP5: Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) CanAM4 model output for the amip4K experiment
Abstract
WCRP CMIP5: Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) CanAM4 model output for the amip4K experiment. These data cover the following realms: atmos, land and landIce; at the following frequency: 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).
