TOGA / GOGA SST files

Dear all,

I am looking for the SST forcing files for TOGA and GOGA experiments, I can't find them on Derecho (If there are any), can anyone tell me?

I need them for spatial analysis purpose, thanks a lot!

Thanks Mike! I am guessing that @atmospherics is looking for the sst/ice files that are used to force the AMIP and Tropical-AMIP simulations that you pointed to. The newest sst/ice forcing files for those types of simulations can be found here:
/glade/campaign/cgd/cas/asphilli/cam_input_data/sst_ERSSTv5_bc_0.9x1.25_1870_2022_c220406.nc (AMIP)
/glade/campaign/cgd/cas/asphilli/cam_input_data/sst_ERSSTv5_bc_0.9x1.25_1870_2022_toga_c220406.nc (Tropical AMIP)
These files use ERSSTv5 sst in place of HadISST/OISSTv2 sst. (HadISST/OISSV2 ice is still used.)

@atmospherics If I am incorrect about what you are after please let me know.

According to this page, TOGA is in /glade/campaign/cgd/cas/asphilli/f.e10.F2000CN.f09_f09.vamip.toga and GOGA is in /glade/campaign/cgd/cas/asphilli/f.e10.F2000CN.f09_f09.vamip. Unfortunately, these directories are not world-readable -- I'll reach out to the owner of that data and see if it can be made available (assuming these are the runs you are looking for)

A more recent run is documented on this page, and points to the following output:

TOGA: /glade/campaign/cesm/development/cvcwg/cvwg/f.e21.FHIST_FSSP370.f09_f09.ersstv5.toga
GOGA: /glade/campaign/cesm/development/cvcwg/cvwg/f.e21.FHIST_FSSP370_BGC.f09_f09.ersstv5.goga/

In each of those directories are directories for the 20 ensemble members (10 historical, 10 SSP370). For each of the 20 TOGA subdirectories, you'll find the SST file in atm/month_1; for GOGA, they are in atm/proc/tseries/month_1 (just search for *.SST.*.nc)
