Abstract

WCRP CMIP5: The EC-EARTH Consortium's EC-EARTH model output for the AMIP (amip) experiment. These data cover the following realms: atmos and land; at the following frequencies: 3hr, 6hr, day, mon and subhr. The runs included the ensemble members: r1i1p1 and r3i1p1.

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).

For details of the EC-EARTH Consortium members please see the linked reference to the EC-EARTH Consortium website on this record.
