Output data size

Hi Everyone,

Can some one help me to investigate the size of output data of CCSM Model for 1 year using T42 or any resolution. We are buying new storage and I want to calculate how much space this model take for 20 years simulation.

Cheers
Siraj

Much depends on how frequently you plan on outputting data, and which fields you select to output. If you want to save a lot of daily or subdaily data, your output volume will increase dramatically.

Without more details on how you plan to save data, it's very difficult to determine the total data volume.
