Sea Ice and SST Simulations in CCSM3/CAM3

This data set is a collection of climate model output for a set of three CAM3 experiments in which sea ice concentration and/or SSTs were assigned to their values from a fully coupled, transient 2xCO2 CCSM3 simulation. In one experiment, contemporary sea ice concentration is used as a boundary condi...

Description
Summary:This data set is a collection of climate model output for a set of three CAM3 experiments in which sea ice concentration and/or SSTs were assigned to their values from a fully coupled, transient 2xCO2 CCSM3 simulation. In one experiment, contemporary sea ice concentration is used as a boundary condition, while the 2xCO2 SST values are applied. The second experiment is the reverse: contemporary SSTs are used in conjunction with 2xCO2 sea ice coverage. The third experiment applies both the changes in sea ice and SSTs.
