Dataset associated with "Multiple‐Instance Superparameterization, Part 1: Concept, and Predictability of Precipitation"

Contents of the dataset (purpose and scope, time period, areas of investigation): Daily-mean history file output in netcdf format for 30 simulated years from three different CAM simulations: 1) MP-CAM (multiple instance super-parameterized community atmospheric model), 2) SP-CAM (super-parameterized community atmospheric model), and 3) standard CAM. ** simulation name prefixes ** MP-CAM = spcam_ensemble_branch - mix of multiple records per file and just one record per file; SP-CAM = spcamtest - all files contain 30 records per file; and standard CAM = stdcamtest - all files contain 30 records per file. For the MP-CAM history files, we used the netcdf operator (NCO) NCWA (netcdf weighted average) to take means over the number of ensembles (crm_num_ensb=10) and the number of cloud-permitting columns in each grid cell (crm_nx=32).
