MIROC MIROC6 model output prepared for CMIP6 LS3MIP

Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) datasets: These data include all datasets published for 'CMIP6.LS3MIP.MIROC.MIROC6' with the full Data Reference Syntax following the template 'mip_era.activity_id.institution_id.source_id.experiment_id.member_id.table_id.variable_id.grid_label.version'.

The MIROC6 climate model, released in 2017, includes the following components:
aerosol: SPRINTARS6.0, atmos: CCSR AGCM (T85; 256 x 128 longitude/latitude; 81 levels; top level 0.004 hPa), land: MATSIRO6.0, ocean: COCO4.9 (tripolar primarily 1deg; 360 x 256 longitude/latitude; 63 levels; top grid cell 0-2 m), seaIce: COCO4.9.
The model was run by the JAMSTEC (Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology, Kanagawa 236-0001, Japan), AORI (Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, The University of Tokyo, Chiba 277-8564, Japan), NIES (National Institute for Environmental Studies, Ibaraki 305-8506, Japan), and R-CCS (RIKEN Center for Computational Science, Hyogo 650-0047, Japan) (MIROC) in native nominal resolutions: aerosol: 250 km, atmos: 250 km, land: 250 km, ocean: 100 km, seaIce: 100 km.

Project: These data have been generated as part of the internationally-coordinated Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6; see also GMD Special Issue: http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/special_issue590.html). The simulation data provides a basis for climate research designed to answer fundamental science questions and serves as resource for authors of the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC-AR6).

CMIP6 is a project coordinated by the Working Group on Coupled Modelling (WGCM) as part of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP). Phase 6 builds on previous phases executed under the leadership of the Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison (PCMDI) and relies on the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) and the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) along with numerous related activities for implementation. The original data is hosted and partially replicated on a federated collection of data nodes, and most of the data relied on by the IPCC is being archived for long-term preservation at the IPCC Data Distribution Centre (IPCC DDC) hosted by the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ).

The project includes simulations from about 120 global climate models and around 45 institutions and organizations worldwide. - Project website: https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/CMIP6.

耦合模式比较计划第六阶段（Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6, CMIP6）数据集：本数据集收录所有遵循`mip_era.activity_id.institution_id.source_id.experiment_id.member_id.table_id.variable_id.grid_label.version`完整数据参考语法模板，针对`CMIP6.LS3MIP.MIROC.MIROC6`发布的全部相关数据集。

2017年发布的MIROC6气候模式包含以下组分：气溶胶模块：SPRINTARS6.0；大气模块：CCSR AGCM（T85分辨率；经纬向网格为256×128；垂直层数81层；顶层气压0.004百帕）；陆面模块：MATSIRO6.0；海洋模块：COCO4.9（极地方格网，主分辨率约1°；经纬向网格为360×256；垂直层数63层；顶层网格深度范围0~2米）；海冰模块：COCO4.9。

该模式由以下四家机构联合研发运行（合称MIROC团队）：日本海洋·地球科学技术振兴机构（Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology, JAMSTEC，神奈川县236-0001，日本）、东京大学大气海洋研究所（Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, The University of Tokyo，千叶县277-8564，日本）、国立环境研究所（National Institute for Environmental Studies, NIES，茨城县305-8506，日本）以及理化学研究所计算科学中心（RIKEN Center for Computational Science, R-CCS，兵库县650-0047，日本）。模式采用原始标称分辨率：气溶胶模块250千米，大气模块250千米，陆面模块250千米，海洋模块100千米，海冰模块100千米。

项目背景：本数据集系国际协同推进的耦合模式比较计划第六阶段（CMIP6；详见《地球科学模式发展》特刊：http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/special_issue590.html）的产出成果，其模拟数据可为解答核心科学问题的气候研究提供支撑，同时亦可作为政府间气候变化专门委员会第六次评估报告（IPCC-AR6）作者群体的参考资源。

CMIP6由世界气候研究计划（World Climate Research Programme, WCRP）下属的耦合模式工作组（Working Group on Coupled Modelling, WGCM）统筹协调。该第六阶段工作延续了此前由气候模式诊断与比较计划（Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison, PCMDI）主导开展的多轮模式比较工作，其实施依托地球系统网格联合会（Earth System Grid Federation, ESGF）、环境数据分析中心（Centre for Environmental Data Analysis, CEDA）及众多相关协作活动。原始数据存储于分布式数据节点集群并实现部分副本冗余，IPCC依赖的绝大多数模拟数据已由德国气候计算中心（German Climate Computing Center, DKRZ）托管的IPCC数据分发中心（IPCC Data Distribution Centre, IPCC DDC）进行长期归档保存。

该项目汇聚了全球约120个全球气候模式与45家科研机构及组织的参与。项目官方网站：https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/CMIP6。
