| Summary: | This dataset contains output from a prescribed model experiment conducted to investigate the impact of snow cover loss over North America on summer atmospheric circulation. We utilized the National Center for Atmospheric Research’s Community Earth System Model version 2.2 to complete a 10-year control simulation. We then modified the land-surface restart files for May 1st of each year of the control period by reducing the snow cover over North America to zero. Using these modified files, we then completed a reduced snow simulation by rerunning three-month simulations from May through July for each of the ten years. This dataset contains both the 10-year control simulation as well as the May–July “no-snow” simulations for each year. More details about the experimental setup and example output can be found in the following publication: Preece, J.R., Mote, T.L., Cohen, J. et al.
