title: Simulation outputs

description: This datasets contains netcdf output files of the simulations analyzed in Colin et al. "Groundwater feedbacks on climate change in the CNRM global climate model" submitted to Journal of Climate. <strong>1. Monthly and daily outputs file names </strong><br> <br> Monthly outputs : SimulationName_arpsfx_monthly_VariableName_year1-year2.nc<br> Daily outputs : SimulationName_arpsfx_daily_VariableName_year1-year2_JJAS.nc<br> <br> <em>Note : the daily outpus are available only for the "extended boreal summer" months, i.e. June, July, August, September</em><br> <br> <strong>2. Simulation names </strong><br> <br> PIC_FLD_632_NCB : named <strong>PIr</strong> in the paper,<br> without groundwater, under Pre-industrial conditions,<br> run over the 1850-1939 (year1-year2) period.<br> <br> PIC_GWFLD_632_NCB_clean : named <strong>PIa</strong> in the paper,<br> with groundwater, under Pre-industrial conditions,<br> run over the 1880-1969 (year1-year2) period.<br> <br> 4xCO2_FLD_632_NCB : named <strong>C4r</strong> in the paper,<br> without groundwater, under 4xCO2 conditions (after stabilization),<br> run over the 1850-1939 (year1-year2) period.<br> <br> 4xCO2_GWFLD_632_NCB_clean : named <strong>C4a</strong> in the paper,<br> with groundwater, under 4xCO2 conditions (after stabilization),<br> run over the 1880-1969 (year1-year2) period.<br> <br> <em>Note : The years' numbering does not matter as it does not correspond to actual years. Each simulation was run for 90 years (after the spin-up procedures) in a stabilized climate under pre-industrial and 4xCO2 conditions.</em><br> <br> <strong>3. Variable names</strong><br> <br> et : evapotranspiration<br> inflitr : liquid water inflitration in the soil<br> lai : Leaf Area Index<br> pr : precipitation<br> rzwc : root zone water content<br> tas_max : maximum daily 2-meter air temperature<br> tas_min : minimum daily 2-meter air temperature<br> tran : plants transpiration<br> vegstress : Soil Wetness Index computed with a weighting of soil water content with root density along vertical layers<br> wg : liquid soil water content in each vertical layers (sdepth)<br> wtd : water table depth<br> <br> <em>Note : wtd is defined on the river routing model (CTRIP) grid, at 0.5° resolution. All the other variables are defined on the grid common to the atmospheric model (Arpege-Climat) and land surface model (ISBA), at ~1° resolution.</em><br> <br> <em>The variables units and any further needed informations are included in files metadata.</em><br> <br> <strong>4. Other files (fixed fields)</strong><br> <br> areacella.nc : grid cell areas of the ISBA/Arpege-Climat grid (Land Surface model and atmospheric model),<br> areacellr.nc : grid cell areas of the CTRIP grid (River Routing model),<br> land_area_fraction.nc : fraction of land surface in each cell of the the ISBA/Arpege-Climat grid,<br> groundwater_mask.nc : groundwater mask, defined on the CTRIP grid,<br> groundwater_mask_on_Isba-Arpege_grid.nc : groundwater mask interpolated onto the ISBA/Arpege-Climat grid (using the "remapcon" function of CDO),<br> root_depth.nc : root depth, defined on the ISBA/Arpege-Climat grid,<br> root_depth_on_CTrip_grid.nc : root depth interpolated onto the CTRIP grid (using the "remapcon" function of CDO).
