Data Access
Data access links are provided to the peer nodes of the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF: http://esgf.org) and to the long-term data archive of the World Data Center for Climate (WDCC: http://www.wdc-climate.de). ESGF data access requires a valid openID and WDCC data access a CERA account (see http://cera-www.dkrz.de/).

ESGF Data Access (openID)
There is currently no directly linked data available, please take a look at the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) gateways, e.g. http://esgf-data.dkrz.de.

Summary
The experiment includes the latest CMIP5 data of CSIRO for January 2015. The data is a newer version of the IPCC DDC AR5 data of CSIRO.

historicalMisc is an experiment of the CMIP5 - Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 ( https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5 ). CMIP5 is meant to provide a framework for coordinated climate change experiments for the next five years and thus includes simulations for assessment in the AR5 as well as others that extend beyond the AR5.

Experiment design: https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/experiment_design.html
List of output variables: https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/datadescription.html
Output: time series per variable in model grid spatial resolution in netCDF format
Earth System model and the simulation information: CIM repository

Entry name/title of data are specified according to the Data Reference Syntax ( https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/docs/cmip5_data_reference_syntax.pdf ) as activity/product/institute/model/experiment/frequency/modeling realm/MIP table/ensemble member/version number/variable name/CMOR filename.nc .

Used forcings in individual ensemble runs (see attached addinfo for more information):
r[1-5]i1p1 - Ant: anthropogenic forcing (AA anthropogenic aerosols - a mixture of aerosols, not explicitly defined here; Oz - tropospheric and stratospheric ozone; GHG - well-mixed greenhouse gases, a mixture, not explicitly defined here);
r[1-5]i1p2 - NoOz: all forcings except tropospheric and stratospheric ozone concentrations fixed;
r[1-5]i1p3 - NoAA: all forcings except anthropogenic aerosols (AA) and the indirect effect of AA on snow albedo;
r[1-5]i1p4 - AA: anthropogenic aerosols (AA) including the indirect effect of AA on snow albedo;
r[1-5]i1p5 - AntNoAA: the same as NoAA (AA is fixed at preindustrial levels), except that AA emissions are allowed to vary in the Asian region [10S to 45N x 65E to 150E];
r[1-5]i1p6 - VI: volcanic forcing only.

Please note
WDC Climate performed checks on the validity of metadata and data accessed at WDC Climate (WDCC). WDCC recommends to check all downloaded data files by their tracking_id with the CMIP5 Data Validation Service at http://cera-www.dkrz.de/WDCC/CMIP5/Tracking.jsp?tracking_id=tracking_id The tracking_id can be found in the file headers (e.g. using ncdump -h).
