Description
Summary:These data contain a subset of time-dependent glacier model output variables: Reference: J. Seguinot, I. Rogozhina, A. P. Stroeven, M. Margold, and J. Kleman. Numerical simulations of the Cordilleran ice sheet through the last glacial cycle, The Cryosphere, 10(2):639–664, 10.5194/tc-10-639-2016, 2016. File names: ciscyc4.{10km|5km}.{forcing}.{ex.1ka|ts.10a}.nc Horizontal resolution: 10km: 10 km horizontal resolution 5km: 5 km horizontal resolution Temperature forcing: epica: EPICA ice core temperature forcing grip: GRIP ice core temperature forcing ngrip: NGRIP ice core temperature forcing odp1012: ODP 1012 ocean core temperature forcing odp1020: ODP 1020 ocean core temperature forcing vostok: Vostok ice core temperature forcing Variable types: ex.1ka: spatial diagnostics every thousand years ts.10a: scalar time-series every ten years Data format: The data use compressed netCDF format. For quick inspection I recommend ncview. Spatial diagnostics (*.ex.1ka.nc) can be converted to GeoTIFF (and other GIS formats) e.g. using GDAL: gdal_translate NETCDF:filename.nc:variable -b band filename.variable.band.tif The list of variables (subdatasets) can be obtained from ncdump or gdalinfo. The band number equals 120 minus the age in ka. Band information can be displayed with: gdalinfo NETCDF:filename.nc:variable Variable long names, units, PISM configuration parametres and additional information are contained within the netCDF metadata.
