ACE2S-SHiELD+ reference data

This bucket contains reference data used in training and evaluating models described in the ACE2S-SHiELD+ manuscript. The reference data is derived from data generated from simulations with GFDL's SHiELD model. All simulations were configured identically, with the exception of the initial conditions, ocean boundary conditions, and the concentration of CO2. We refer readers to the ACE2, ACE2-SOM, and ACE2S-SHiELD+ papers for more specific details regarding these runs, but a high-level summary of this bucket's contents is provided in the table below.

Directory Description Time range
2pctCO2-ensemble 2-member ensemble of 70-year ~100 km slab-ocean-coupled SHiELD simulations with CO2 increasing at a rate of 2% per year from 1x to 4x the present-day concentration. Spin-up1: 2030-01-01T06:00:00 through 2031-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 2031-01-01T06:00:00 through 2101-01-01T00:00:00
AMIP-constant-CO2 ~42-year ~100 km SHiELD AMIP simulation with CO2 fixed at the 1979 level. Spin-up: 1978-10-01T06:00:00 through 1980-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 1980-01-01T06:00:00 through 2021-12-16T12:00:00
AMIP-ensemble 2-member ensemble of ~82-year ~100 km SHiELD AMIP simulations. Spin-up: 1939-10-01T06:00:00 through 1940-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 1940-01-01T06:00:00 through 2021-12-16T12:00:00
AMIP-plus-4K ~42-year ~100 km SHiELD AMIP simulation with the SST uniformly increased by +4 K. Spin up: 1979-01-01T06:00:00 through 1980-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 1980-01-01T06:00:00 through 2021-12-16T12:00:00
abrupt-4xCO2 10-year ~100 km slab-ocean-coupled SHiELD simulation with CO2 abruptly quadrupled at the start of the run. Main: 2020-01-01T06:00:00 through 2030-01-01T00:00:00
abrupt-4xCO2-ensemble 36-member ensemble of 90-day ~100 km slab-ocean-coupled SHiELD abrupt 4xCO2 simulations started from initial conditions separated by one month over the course of 3 years. Main: full 90-day periods of each store, which start one month apart for each ensemble member starting with 2031-01-01T06:00:00.
equilibrium-climate-ensemble 5-member ensembles of spun-up 10-year ~100 km slab-ocean-coupled SHiELD simulations with 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x the present-day CO2 concentration. Spin-up2: 2030-01-01T06:00:00 through 2031-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 2031-01-01T06:00:00 through 2041-01-01T00:00:00
random-CO2-ensemble 3-member ensembles of 5-year ~100 km SHiELD ramped-SST-random-CO2 simulations with random CO2 trajectories logarithmically centered about 1x, 2x, and 4x the present-day concentration. Spin-up: 2019-10-01T06:00:00 through 2020-01-01T00:00:00

Main: 2020-01-01T06:00:00 through 2025-01-01T00:00:00

For how these datasets were used in training and/or evaluation in the ACE2S-SHiELD+ manuscript, see the configurations in the ACE-experiments directory of the ace2s-shield-plus-paper repository on GitHub.


1 Note ic_0001.zarr omits its spin-up period.
2 Spin-up data is only provided for select runs and is split off from the main segments in the separate spin-up subdirectory.
