climate forcing up to 2021 for Australia

Hello, I need to do single point simulations with CLM5 for a field site in Australia from 2016 to 2021. In glade, we have available clmforc.GSWP3.c2011.0.5x0.5 global up to 2014 and NLDAS2.c2020.0125x0125 for North America up to 2019. I am wondering if anybody in the community has climate forcing data for CLM5 already available for Australia or a global dataset that goes up to 2021, in which I can extract the parameters for my site, or knows a good source where I could extract hourly time series up to 2021 of temperature, wind, specific humidity, longwave radiation, solar radiation, precipitation for Australia . Thanks a lot! Best regards, Maria

One possibility is the TRENDY2022 project which uses CRUJRA. The data runs through 2021 and is currently here:

/glade/scratch/djk2120/trendy2022/three_stream

I've been told that we haven't run with this yet, but we don't expect any problems.
The one thing to note is that they give FSDS as direct vs. diffuse, so you just have to set up the solar streams accordingly

<fieldInfo>
<variableNames>
FSDS_DIRECT swdndr
FSDS_DIFFUSE swdndf
</variableNames>

Thanks, Keith. This is very useful! Maria

Hello, Keith and Maria,

I also want to use the trendy2022 data. But how can I get access to the path you mentioned? Where does it exist?

Thanks

It exists on a file system that is mounted on our HPC, cheyenne. Do you have access to cheyenne?

Hi, Keith.

Thank you for your reply. I don't have the access to cheyenne yet. How can I get access? Or can I achieve the data from somewhere else?

Best regards,

Qingrui

There is a new capability that enables guest collections using Globus. I haven't tried this so I don't know if it will work.
But you could try this link:

Globus

I'm not sure how it will look on your end or if you'll be able to download the data. The entire collection is rather large at 1.4 TB.

I've been informed that there may be an embargo on this data, therefore I've removed this link. I'll provide an update once I learn more.
