Availability of CESM1 and CESM2 Models for Higher Spatial and Time Resolution

Hello All, I have some questions regarding the aforementioned topic.

1. Can anybody give some ideas about the availability of CESM2 GCM results with a spatial resolution of 50 km (~0.5 degree) for time resolution of 3 hours (precipitations) or higher? And also how we can get access to them if available? As per my knowledge all of the CESM2 Large Ensemble simulations use nominal 1 degree resolution.
2. Can anyone please give suggestions about using CESM1 or CESM2 considering the higher spatial resolution at the same time resolution (3hr and higher)? I mean what would be the advice regarding use of CESM1 vs CESM2?
3. Can you please ensure whether CESM1 has simulations for CMIP6 and with sub-daily precipitation data (3hr/ 6hr/12hrs)?
4. There appears to be only monthly data is available at CMIP6 data portal for the HighResMIP contributions. Can anybody provide some idea about availability of sub-daily precipitations data?

Warm regards.

CESM1 was not used for CMIP6 except for HighResMIP, and all available HighResMIP data are on ESGF.
