CM2.1 available data by experiment

[NOAA bullet]summary of data availability: by experiment


List of data tables:

The table names listed below are consistent with those of the IPCC/PCMDI archive as outlined in their document titled IPCC Standard Output from Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere GCMs. Note that for many ocean and sea ice variables, output is available both on the model component's native tripolar grid (designated "GFDL-T") and interpolated to a rectangular Cartesian grid (GFDL-I). For related information, see our CM2.X model ocean and sea ice grids information web page.

Key:

  • PCMDI = all data for this experiment and data table has been shipped to PCMDI.
  • PCMDI% = some, but not all, data for this experiment and data table has been shipped to PCMDI.
  • XpX = data for this experiment and data table will not been sent to PCMDI.
  • -p- = data for this experiment and data table has not been sent to PCMDI yet.
  • GFDL = all data for this experiment and data table is available on the GFDL Data Portal.
  • GFDL-T = tripolar ocean data for this experiment and data table is available on the GFDL Data Portal.
  • GFDL-I = ocean data interpolated to LatLon grid for this experiment and data table is available on the GFDL Data Portal.
  • GFDL(-I/T)% = some, but not all, data for this experiment and data table is available on the GFDL Data Portal.
  • -g- = data for this experiment and data table has not placed on the GFDL Data Portal yet.
  • XgX= data for this experiment and data table will not appear on the GFDL Data Portal.

The GFDL CM2.0 and CM2.1 model output found on this GFDL Data Portal is free and publicly available.

In contrast, access to data stored on the IPCC/PCMDI archive (model output from GFDL and other international research centers) is limited to users whose registration applications are approved by the IPCC/WGCM committee. For more information about registration at that site, see the PCMDI About IPCC Model Output web page [an external link].
