Questions about solFe_scenario4_current_gx1v6.nc and access to CESM1.2.1 Scientific Guide PDF

Dear CESM community,
I’m currently working with CESM1.2.1, specifically its POP2 component, and I have two related requests:

1. Generation of solFe_scenario4_current_gx1v6.nc​

The model automatically reads in soluble iron deposition from a file named solFe_scenario4_current_gx1v6.nc, which supplies the iron_flux variable. I haven’t been able to find any documentation or explanation regarding:
  • How are the iron_flux values calculated?
  • Which atmospheric model or dataset were used to generate this file?
  • Was it derived through offline processing or scripted conversion? If so, where can I find the code or workflow for that?
  • Is there a reference in the CESM Scientific Guide or elsewhere that describes this dataset?
Understanding the origin and assumptions behind this file is essential for my research, especially if I plan to adjust iron input or test alternate deposition scenarios.

2. CESM1.2.1 Scientific Guide PDF​

I’m currently unable to access the online Scientific Guide for CESM1.2.1 — the website appears down or inaccessible. Could anyone kindly share a PDF of the guide, or point me to an archive where it’s still available?

I have already looked through the CESM1.2.1 documentation directory and tried accessing links found in various responses, but so far without success.
Thank you very much for your help and any direction you can provide
