The CCSM3 Pre-Industrial Control Climate Simulation for Deep Time lpia.pic1

I. Top Level Description This dataset archives a simulation with Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) known as lpia.pic1. It was called Pic1 in Heavens et al. (2015), the publication in which it was first reported in the peer-reviewed literature. This publication should be used for reference concerning the overarching methodology of the simulation. The simulation was run on the bluefire machine operated by the Computational Information Systems Laboratory (CISL) of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) between 5 May 2011 and 17 May 2011. The included README.TXT provides a more detailed description. References: Heavens, N.G., N.M. Mahowald, G.S. Soreghan, M.J. Soreghan, C.A.

I. 顶层描述
本数据集归档了一项采用第3版社区气候系统模型（Community Climate System Model version 3, CCSM3）开展的模拟实验，编号为lpia.pic1。该实验在Heavens等人2015年发表的文献中被称为Pic1，这也是其首次在同行评审学术期刊中公开报道的成果，该文献可作为本模拟实验总体方法论的参考依据。
本模拟实验于2011年5月5日至2011年5月17日期间，在美国国家大气研究中心（National Center for Atmospheric Research, NCAR）计算信息系统实验室（Computational Information Systems Laboratory, CISL）运营的BlueFire超级计算机上完成运行。随附的README.TXT文件提供了更为详细的说明。
