Antarctic moisture budgets

This dataset contains the results from the moisture budget calculations over the Antarctic based on the ERA-Interim reanalysis and four climate models (CESM2, CESM1-LE, ACCESS1-3 and NorESM1-M). More specifically, this dataset allows analyzing the contributions of the large-scale and synoptic-scale...

Description
Summary:This dataset contains the results from the moisture budget calculations over the Antarctic based on the ERA-Interim reanalysis and four climate models (CESM2, CESM1-LE, ACCESS1-3 and NorESM1-M). More specifically, this dataset allows analyzing the contributions of the large-scale and synoptic-scale transport to the Antarctic snow accumulation. The variables included in each file (NetCDF) are: -DVIq6u6: the moisture convergence (i.e. -(P-E)) -DVIqmum: the moisture convergence associated with the large-scale circulation -DVIqpup: the moisture convergence associated with the synoptic-scale events Please contact Quentin Dalaiden (quentin.dalaiden@uclouvain.be) for more information.
