| Summary: | We provide the results of 11 Late Cretaceous climate simulations (Tab. 1 in Niezgodzki et al. [2019, doi:10.1016/j.gloplacha.2019.03.011]) produced with COSMOS in a coupled atmosphere-ocean configuration. Five of these experiments use a 3 x pre-industrial (PI) CO2 level (840 ppm) while 6 of them were run with 4xPI CO2 (1120 ppm). The experiments with the same CO2 levels differ by gateway configurations between the Arctic Ocean and North proto-Atlantic basin. In spin-up experiments we employ Maastrichtian (~70 Ma) paleogeography of Markwick and Valdes [2004, doi:10.1016/j.palaeo.2004.06.015]. More information about model scenarios and model set-up can be found in Niezgodzki et al. [2019, doi:10.1016/j.gloplacha.2019.03.011]. Here we publish simulated winter (DJF) surface temperatures (tsurf) and salinity (SAO), averaged March-April (Ma-Ap) sea surface temperature (THO) and SAO and monthly sea-ice compactness (SICOMO) of each experiment. Additionally, for two gateway configurations we show DJF and summer (JJA) ... : Supplement to: Niezgodzki, Igor; Tyszka, Jaroslaw; Knorr, Gregor; Lohmann, Gerrit (2019): Was the Arctic Ocean ice free during the latest Cretaceous?
