CMIP6 CESM2 AMIP hindcast (1950-2014) with high-top atmosphere (WACCM6) with interactive chemistry (TSMLT1), interactive land (CLM5), data ocean, prescribed sea ice, and non-evolving land ice (CISM2.1).

An atmosphere only climate simulation using prescribed sea surface temperature and sea ice concentrations but with other conditions as in the Historical simulation. (CMIP6 Experiment).

Users can access the data from the Earth System Grid Federation or Climate Data Gateway as registered users; see the 'Related links' section.

Diagnostic plots are also available from the 'Related links'.

NCAR users may access the data from Glade; path(s) listed in the 'Additional Information' section.
