Nudging the tropical Indian Ocean Applied to the IPSL-CM6A-LR model - Control Experiments

This experiment applies monthly nudging of -2, -1, +1, and +2 degree C to the tropical Indian Ocean region in the IPSL-CM6A-LR pre-industrial control run. The methods of nudging are defined in Ferster et al. (2021), where we apply a constant nudging and refer to the experiments as TIOxC, where "x" is the monthly nudging value (as in Ferster et al., 2021). Additional experiments were simulated for a paper within the submission process (to be included and updated within future versions) including the "TIOc" and "C0C" experiments, where the TIOC nudges towards towards the time-mean climatology and the C0C nudges at each monthly time step towards the pre-industrial control's corresponding monthly value (similar to adding white noise at each time step).

The datasets are included from the experiments to help share our results and reproducibility of the figures within our manuscripts, the original model output is stored on the TGCC computing machine Irene. All datasets are saved on this data repository are saved as annual means! These datasets represent the C0C (TIO=0C) and TIOc control experiments.

The pre-industrial control from IPSL can be found on the CMIP6-ESGF servers and the TGCC computing machine Irene.

*The datasets are created from the IPSL-CM6A-LR output files

**This version serves as a preliminary version of the dataset for publication purposes, additional output is available and the experiment output exceeds the 50gb of storage offered through this platform (TGCC Irene).
