Data for: The effect of Pliocene regional climate changes on silicate weathering

This dataset stores the data of the article "The effect of Pliocene
regional climate changes on silicate weathering: a potential amplifier of
Pliocene-Pleistocene cooling",(P. Maffre, J. Chiang & N.
Swanson-Hysell, submitted to Climate of the Past). This study uses a
climate model (GCM) to reproduce an estimate of Pliocene Sea Surface
Temperature (SST). The main GCM outputs of this modeling (with a slab
ocean model) are stored in "GCM_outputs_for_GEOCLIM/", as well
as the climatologies from ERA5 reanalysis. The other GCM outputs that were
used in intermediary steps (coupled ocean-atmosphere, and fixed SST
simulations) are stored in "other_GCM_outputs/". The forcing
files (Q-flux) and other boundary conditions to run the "main"
GCM simulations can be found in
"other_GCM_outputs/Q-flux_derivation/", as well as the scripts
used to generate them. Secondly, the mentioned study uses the GCM outputs
in "GCM_outputs_for_GEOCLIM/" as inputs for the silicate
weathering model GEOCLIM-DynSoil-Steady-State
(https://github.com/piermafrost/GEOCLIM-dynsoil-steady-state/tree/PEN), to
investigate weathering and equilibrium CO2 changes due to Pliocene SST
conditions. The results of these simulations are stored in
"GEOCLIM-DynSoil-Steady-State_outputs/". The purpose of this
dataset is to provide the raw outputs used to draw the conclusions of
Maffre et al. (submitted to Climate of the Past), and to allow the
experiments to be reproduced, by providing the scripts to generate the
boundary conditions.
