Downloading observational data and CAM6 model output data

[jbseth]

Hi all,

I am an undergrad at Iowa State University that is looking to utilize CAM6 outputs to compare against observational datasets for a project. I am looking to work with data from the CAM6 runs with prescribed monthly SST's.

I have been able to easily locate the available diagnostic package code on GitHub, but I am also in need of the data outlined above to actually run any of the code. However, when I look on the CAM6 website, I am unable to find the observational datasets, output datasets, and prescribed SST datasets that I need to run the code.

Am I supposed to be able to pull in this data just with the code alone, or do I need to download it? (I think I need to download it)

If I'm right, can someone please help me find these datasets so that I can download them and actually start to run analyses on the data? (Note: I am NOT looking for CESM model outputs, just CAM6).

Thank you so much!

My understanding is that you are looking for CAM6 model output.

You can find the CMIP6 output for an AMIP type run with CAM6 on the Earth System Grid

Dataset: f.e21.FHIST_BGC.f09_f09_mg17.CMIP6-AMIP.001 data

She needs the observational datasets that go into the AMWG diagnostics - I've forgotten how to get them.
