7.1 Abstract
This dataset contains the results of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5)
experiments produced by the Meteorological Research Institute Coupled Atmosphere-Ocean General
Circulation Model version 3 (MRI-CGCM3).
This work has been carried out in the research activity of the Meteorological ResearchInstitute: "Research on detailed projection of climate change over Japan due to the globalwarming" (FY2005-2009) and "Research on projections for climate and environmental change tocontribute to the adaptation planning to the climate change" (FY2010-2013). A part of the CMIP5
experiments with MRI-AGCM3.2H/S was supported by the Innovative Program of Climate Change Projection
for the 21st Century (KAKUSHIN Program) from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Scienceand Technology (MEXT), Japan (FY2007-2011).
The release of this dataset was supported by the Data Integration and Analysis System (DIAS) of MEXT.
All CMIP5 data are collected, managed, and published by the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF), andDIAS serves as an ESGF node. All public datasets, including this dataset, are available from ESGF.
For information on how to use these datasets, including this dataset, see "CMIP5 Data - Getting
Started" (URL is available in the online information below). Please note that an ESGF account isrequired to download the CMIP5 data.
Because the terms of use for CMIP5 data are different from CMIP6 in many respects, please checkthe following Terms of Use carefully:
https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/terms-of-use.html
Currently, all CMIP5 data, including this dataset, is classified as "unrestricted" within it.
