CESM1 Fixed Ozone Ensemble

d651053
 
Abstract:

The CESM1-CAM5 fixed ozone runs are eight CESM simulations that use the Large Ensemble (LENS) code base and were initialized in 1955 with Large Ensemble members. The runs use the same external forcings as those in the 20th Century CESM LENS except for ozone. Instead of prescribing a time-varying ozone concentration as in LENS, ozone is kept at constant 1955 concentrations. (The ozone file is available under the Data Access tab.) Note that the global ozone concentrations are fixed, including both stratospheric and tropospheric concentrations. The runs go from 1955-2005 and are labeled "b.e11..B20LE_fixedO3_xxx" where "xxx" corresponds to the Large Ensemble member that it branched from (e.g. 001, 010, etc). These runs were supported with resources from NSF FESD (#1338814).

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
