AMIP TOGA Specific Humidity (Q) Output

Dear all,

I am looking for the Q output for all pressure levels from AMIP TOGA experiments. And I could find this on casper:

f.e21.FHIST.f09_f09.historical.ersstv5.toga.ens01.cam.h0.Q.188001-201412.nc that originates at /glade/campaign/collections/rda/data/d651010/tropical/f.e21.FHIST.f09_f09.historical.ersstv5.toga.ens01/atm/month_1

But I couldn't find the Q variable from this file, only a QFLX variable, and I found this to be exactly the same to the QFLX variable from the ...toga.ens01.cam.h0.QFLX...nc under the same path.

Was this a mistake? Please let me know if I should look at other files. Thanks in advance.

If you're accessing the data directly from campaign storage, the Q data are in the same directory:

pwd
/glade/campaign/collections/rda/data/d651010/tropical/f.e21.FHIST.f09_f09.historical.ersstv5.toga.ens01/atm/month_1
