CCSM3 Development Simulations of Freezedry Cloud Parameterization

CCSM3 climate model output of simulations testing the "freezedry" parameterization to improve the wintertime Arctic cloud representation. Two sets of output are available: simulations of the modern climate (present-day greenhouse gas concentrations) and with a 1% per year transient CO2 inc...

Description
Summary:CCSM3 climate model output of simulations testing the "freezedry" parameterization to improve the wintertime Arctic cloud representation. Two sets of output are available: simulations of the modern climate (present-day greenhouse gas concentrations) and with a 1% per year transient CO2 increase. 30 years of model output are available for the modern-day run, and 90 years for the greenhouse simulation. Output comes as monthly (and selected daily) averages for the atmosphere, ocean, land, and sea ice, in standard netCDF format.
