hi,
i am trying to download spunup initial conditions for ccsm3 T85 resolution,can i use data available in esg by name "CCSM run b30.009: atmospheric initialization files" and simillarly,land,ocean,ice as spinup initial condition dataset.

You can certainly download the atm initialization files from ESG. You do have an ESG account.

Let esg-support@earthsystemgrid.org know of any problems.

Thank you for replying back
yes i do have account and i found atmospheric initialization files for T85 resolution my question is 1)can i use them as spunup initial condition data and there are no such initialization files available for land ocean .how do get them.
2) i am curious about knowing how 1990 control run was done how long was model run?
3)in atmospheric initialization files there are about 699 files in esg how are they generated?

Thanking you in advance

I'm not sure how the "cami" files are generated; one of the atm model folks can answer that question better than I can.

There are a set of restart files for b30.009 on ESG; go to the following URL:

http://www.earthsystemgrid.org/brow...sm.b30.009/ucar.cgd.ccsm.b30.009.rest.thredds

to access them.

2) i am curious about knowing how 1990 control run was done how long was model run?

See

and

for additional details.

See my answer to your first question.
