IPCC DDC AR4 NCAR-PCM SRESB1 run1

National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR)

Experiment
Summary
These data represent monthly averaged values of selected variables for the Data Distribution Centre (DDC) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). (see also https://www.ipcc-data.org/)

The model output prepared for IPCC Fourth Assessment SRES B1 experiment.

These datasets are available in netCDF and GRIB format.

For this experiment there are 4 ensemble runs available.

This simulation was initiated from year 2000-01 of PCM1 model run B05.08 and executed on hardware bluesky.ucar.edu. The input external forcings are
ozone forcing : B1.noaao3.122yr.IPCC.051403.nc
solar forcing : Hoyt/Schatten solar forcing, defined in code, see website for details
GHGs : defined in code, see website
volcanic forcing : none
SOx emissions : SO4-B1.1998-2101.R.nc
Physical constants used for derived data:
Lv (latent heat of evaporation): 2.501e6 J kg-1
Lf (latent heat of fusion ): 3.337e5 J kg-1
r[h2o] (density of water ): 1000 kg m-3

Model output data for CMIP3 in higher temporal resolutions and further variables are available in ESGF at https://esgf-node.llnl.gov/search/cmip3/.
