CESM2 routed discharge data

[ksolander]

I am looking to obtain routed discharge output from CESM2 forced by historical climate. Does anyone know if this might be available through ESGF or some other computing resource?

There is daily river discharge data available from the CESM2 Large Ensemble:

Thanks! Which variable should I be looking for? QRUNOFF? Just to confirm, this is routed runoff generated from MOSART and forced by historical climate, correct?

RIVER_DISCHARGE_OVER_LAND_LIQ. Yes, it is routed runoff into the ocean generated from MOSART and forced by historical climate.
