In order to document CMIP6’s scientific impact and enable ongoing support of CMIP, users are also obligated to acknowledge CMIP6, ISMIP6 and the participating modeling groups. About the dataset: - The results are based on model output computed from the ISMIP6 native grids that vary between models. - The results are calculated over the ice-covered area of Antarctica, corrected for map projection errors, ice sheet model specific densities taken into account. - Results for the experiments 'exp*' are provided both as raw results and calculated as differences to the control experiment (ctrl_proj_open or ctrl_proj_std depending on the experiment). The later files are named with "minus_ctrl_proj" to indicate that the control run is substracted. - Results for ctrl_proj_open, ctrl_proj_std, hist_open and hist_std are not corrected to remove the control run. ------------------------------------------------ Directory structure: groupname1 modelname1 expid computed_iareafl_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_iareafl_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_iareagr_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_iareagr_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_icearea_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_icearea_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_ivol_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_ivol_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_ivaf_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_ivaf_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_smb_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_smb_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_smbgr_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_smbgr_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_bmbfl_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc computed_bmbfl_minus_ctrl_proj_AIS_groupname1_modelname1_expid.nc ... ------------------------------------------------- Description of variables: icearea - ice area [m^2] iareafl - floating ice area [m^2] iareagr - grounded ice area [m^2] ivol - ice volume [m^3] ivaf - ice volume above floatation [m^3] smb - spatially integrated surface mass balance [kg/s] smbgr - spatially integrated surface mass balance over grounded ice [kg/s] bmbfl - spatially integrated basal melt rate under floating ice (negative for melting ice) [kg/s] Variables per file: rhoi - model specific ice density [kg m-3] rhow - model specific ocean water density [kg m-3] time - time, in years [variable] - global variable integrated over the Antarctica ice sheet [variable]_region_1 - variable integrated over West Antarctica [variable]_region_2 - variable integrated over East Antarctica [variable]_region_3 - variable integrated over the Antarctic Peninsula [variable]_sector_X - variable integrated over the X sector of the Antarctic ice sheet (18 sectors, from 1 to 18) -------------------------------------------------- Data usage notice: If you use any of these results, please acknowledge the work of the people involved in producing them.
