Abstract:
Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) data from the 1.3 release series of CESM, using a present-day F compset (active atmosphere and land, data ocean, and prescribed ice concentration) and CAM5 physics. This spectral-element version of CAM uses a ne30 resolution, which corresponds approximately to a 1 degree global grid containing a total of 48,602 horizontal grid points and 30 vertical levels. Each simulation is 1 year in length. The files are CAM history files in NetCDF format. Each file contains two time slices: the first contains the initial condition and the second contains the annual average. There are 343 files in total, each containing 134 2D and 3D variables. (548M each).
Variables:
| Cloud Fraction | Geopotential Height | Latent Heat Flux | Longwave Radiation |
| Precipitation Rate | Sensible Heat Flux | Shortwave Radiation | Skin Temperature |
| Specific Humidity | Upper Air Temperature | U/V Wind Components |
Vertical Levels:

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.
