These simulations are carried out with three consecutive, standard versions of NCAR family models: CCSM4, CESM1.2 and CESM2, and feature the same boundary conditions derived from reconstructions by Pliocene Research, Interpretation and Synoptic Mapping project phase 4 (PRISM4), following the PlioMIP2 protocol. In addition, preindustrial runs with the same models, branched from the published preindustrial simulations, are also included for comparison purpose. All simulations are performed with the atmosphere-ocean-land-sea ice coupled model configuration at the nominal 1-degree latitude/longitude for all components. Terrestrial biogeochemical carbon-nitrogen (CN) cycling is active in all simulations. Precursor land only spin-up simulations were carried out to derive initial conditions for the terrestrial biogeochemical components. completed datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact notPlanned dataset https://gdex.ucar.edu/images/ds_logos/default_200_200.png Logo thumbnail from URL png NetCDF dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral CESM > NCAR Community Earth System Model U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-04-15 revision 23.7 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE > SEA LEVEL PRESSURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > SURFACE TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > UPPER AIR TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WATER VAPOR > WATER VAPOR INDICATORS > HUMIDITY > SPECIFIC HUMIDITY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > SURFACE WINDS > U/V WIND COMPONENTS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > WIND DYNAMICS > VERTICAL WIND VELOCITY/SPEED EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > PRECIPITATION > LIQUID PRECIPITATION > RAIN EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > PRECIPITATION > PRECIPITATION PROFILES > LATENT HEAT FLUX U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-04-15 revision 23.7 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 21155946.166 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d651037/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d651037/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
