CORDEX-FPS-Aerosol Protocol 1B output

CORDEX-FPS-Aerosol has set up a dedicated protocol of simulations (called protocol 1B) to evaluate the impact of aerosols on regional climate using non interactive aerosol climatologies (still widely used by the climate community). This protocol relies on three simulations for each regional climate model: a historical run (1971-2000) and two future RCP8.5 simulations (2021-2050), a first one with evolving aerosols (RCMevol or evoaer), and a second one with the same aerosols as in the historical period (RCMcst or cstaer). The historical run and one of the two scenario runs are already published on ESGF (official CORDEX simulations). The present data on Zenodo provides the output for the new scenario simulation designed in the FPS-Aerosols, that is to say either RCMevol if the official CORDEX simulation has constant aerosols of RCMcst if the CORDEX simulation has already evolving aerosols. 9 GCM-RCM pairs are available : REMO2015/EC-EARTH, ALADIN63/CNRM-CM5, ALADIN/HadGEM2-ES, ALADIN/NorESM1-M, ALADIN/MPI-ESM-LR, WRF/CCSM4, COSMO/MPI-ESM-M, RegCM/EC-EARTH and RACMO/EC-EARTH. Note that the two other simulations used in FPS-Aerosols are available on the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF), except for RegCM and WRF for which all simulations have been included in this Zenodo repository.
