Lagrangian Atmospheric Model output for the Control, Onset and Development experiments

This dataset consists of model outputs from the Control, Onset and Development experiments. Each experiment has six ensembles which were integrated for three years. 6-hourly instantaneous surface (1000hPa) zonal and meridional wind speed (m/s) between 31°S-31°N is recorded in uv1000hPa_{Control, Onset, Development}_ens{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.dat. 6-hourly accumulated precipitation (mm) between 32°S-32°N is stored in precip_{ Control, Onset, Development}_ens{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.dat. Note the precip.*dat records accumulated rainfall for the past 6 hours. The missing data is recorded as nan.

Methods
Wind speed information carried by Lagrangian parcels is averaged in 2°-longitude by 2°-latitude grids in the tropics. Precipitation information is averaged in 4°-longitude by 4°-latitude grids in the tropics.
