A. Case Description.

/OLSON/ccm3/sld012b is a 10-year T42 seasonal simulation, using climatological monthly averaged SSTs, with Beta-CCM3 (built with the mv1 library). The SST data set is the Standard CCM3 T42 climatological SST values provided with CCM3.

/OLSON/ccm3/sld012b covers the period from 1 September of year 0 to 1 February of year 11. Atmosphere and LSM (Land Surface Model) Initial Conditions datasets were created from 1 Sept of year 03 of /OLSON/ccm3/sld012a.

Note: The MSS pathnames of datasets output from the Beta-CCM3 model is not the default CCM3 form. Rather it is the default CCM2 form with "ccm3" replacing "ccm2" in the second level of the pathname.

B. Initial and Boundary Datasets.

The initial and boundary datasets used in Case /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b are: 

      NCDATA = '/OLSON/datasets/T42/CCM3SEP1'
      BNDTI  = '/ccm2/T42/tibds'
      BNDTVS = '/MVERTENS/T42SST_SPLINE.CCM2_MV' 
      BNDTVO = '/ccm2/T42/ozn'   
      fsurdat = '/crestone/u1/bonan/lsm/datasets/som/surfdat'
      finidat = '/crestone/u0/olson/lsm/datasets/t42/initdat_CCM3.sep1'
and resolution parameters: 
      HRES  T42              PCNST   1 
      PLEV   18              PTRM   42 
      PLON  128              PTRN   42 
      PLAT   64              PTRK   42

C. Output History Datasets.

/OLSON/ccm3/sld012b covers the period from 1 September of year 0 to 1 February of year 11. 24-hour averages of model fields exist on history tapes for each day of the run. Each daily average is valid for the previous 24 hours (i.e. the daily-average written at 00Z Jan 15 is the average for all timesteps during the time period of the 1st time-step after 00Z Jan 14 through 00Z Jan 15). The data are packed 4-to-1. The output data were written to the primary history tape only; no auxiliary data were written. The output data from this run were written in CCM2 history tape format.

The MSS pathnames for the daily-averaged output data from this case are: 
     /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/hnnnn
where nnnn = 0001, 0002, ..., 0191.

D. Description of post-processed datasets

Monthy Average and Standard Deviation datasets

Monthly averages and standard deviations of the monthly averages for Case /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b are available as series of MSS datasets.

The MSS pathnames for the post-processed data from this case are: 
  /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/mm-yy     (monthly average for each month)
  /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/mm-0110   (10 year average for each month) 
  /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/mm-0110sd (10 year std deviation for each month) 
  /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/mm-0105   ( 5 year average for each month for the
                                       first five years of the integration) 
  /OLSON/ccm3/sld012b/hist/mm-0105sd ( 5 year std deviation for each month for 
                                       the first five years of the integration)
where mm is a two digit month (mm = 01, 02, ..., 12) and yy is a two digit year (yy = 01, 02, ..., 10).
