CESM2 MDM data for "Historical changes in wind driven ocean circulation can accelerate global warming" - submitted to GRL

CESM2 Experiment names:

MD = mechanically decoupled model (referred to as MDM in paper), CESM2

FC = fully coupled model (referred to as FCM in paper), CESM2

Decoding file names:

Variables that are a single value per time step (e.g. global means and globally integrated values) are given in dimensions of time by ensemble member. Variables that include values at every grid point at each point in time are provided with an ensemble mean trend and an ensemble standard deviation of the trend. 

ensmean refers to ensemble mean

ensstd refers to ensemble standard deviation

trend refers to linear trend over 1979-2014

annual refers to annual mean anomalies, relative to reference period of 1941-1970

Variables:

aice = ice area

AMOC = Atlantic meridional overturning circulation

N_HEAT = northward heat transport 

BSF = barotropic streamfunction 

TREFHT = reference level air temperature 

Qnet = net surface heat flux (defined as FSNS - FLNS - LHFLX - SHFLX)

TOA = top of atmosphere radiation 

TOAC = top of atmosphere radiation, clearsky 

FLNT = net longwave flux at top of model

FLNTC = net longwave flux at top of model, clearsky

FSUTOA = upwelling solar flux at top of atmosphere

FSNTOA = net solar flux at top of atmosphere

FSNTOAC = net solar flux at top of atmosphere, clearsky
