The CCSM3 Deep Time Paleoclimate Simulation: lpia.lowstand.glaciation.big

I. Top Level Description

This dataset archives a simulation with Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) known as lpia.lowstand.glaciation.big. It was called Icehouse.glaciation.polar 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 1 April 2011 and 7 May 2011.

More complete documentation is included in the top-level README.TXT

I. 高层次描述
本数据集收录了使用社区气候系统模型版本3（CCSM3）进行的模拟，该模拟被称为lpia.lowstand.glaciation.big。在Heavens等人（2015年）的论文《冰期地球上的泛古热带气候的模型评估》中，该模拟被称为Icehouse.glaciation.polar，该论文首次在同行评审文献中报道了该模拟。关于模拟的整体方法论，应参考该论文。
该模拟于2011年4月1日至2011年5月7日在国家大气研究中心（NCAR）的计算信息系统实验室（CISL）运行的bluefire机器上运行。
