Global MIMICS-CN from biogeochemical testbed

These data document ecosystem biogeochemical responses from carbon-nitrogen and carbon-only versions of the Microbial-MIneral Carbon Stabilization Model (MIMICS) and Carnegie–Ames–Stanford Approach (CASA) soil biogeochemical models, Results are for steady-steate pools and fluxes simulated at initialization and over the historical period (1901-2014). Boundary conditions for the soil biogeochemical testbed were generated by the Community Land Model, version 5 (CLM5) simulations using satelite phenology mode (SP) forced with data with the Global Soil Wetness Program, version 3 (GSWP3).

Simulations are run at a nominal two degree resolution. Input data are daily resolution for the entire historical record (1901-2014). Model output includes annual mean states and fluxes. Additional, daily mean results are reported for the first five and last five years of the simulation for for four different model experiments (MIMICS-CN, MIMICS-Conly, CASA-CN, and CASA-Conly). All file are in netcdf classic format.
