Users should cite the original publication when using all or part of the data. 
In order to document CMIP6’s scientific impact and enable ongoing support of CMIP, users are also obligated to acknowledge CMIP6, ISMIP6 and the participating modelling groups.

*** Important note ***
For consistency with future ISMIP6 intercomparison exercises and some observational data sets, we have re-gridded all output to a diagnostic grid following the EPSG:3413 specifications, which differs from the grid originally used to distribute the forcing data. We also provide the forcing data conservatively interpolated to the new grid.
