The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | PRECIPITATION from 1921-01-01 to 2100-12-31 (NCEI Accession 0220095) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains a subset of the SPEAR_MED, SPEAR_LO, FLOR and FLOR_FA large ensembles (30 members) used for the results published in the study "Increasing risk of another Cape Town Day Zero drought in the twenty-first century". Specifically, we provide the precipitation field (unites: kg/m2/s) over a domain centered over South Africa and Sea Level pressure over a Southern Hemisphere domain. All the data is at monthly resolution (monthly means). For SPEAR_MED, we provide data from four different numerical experiments: (1) a long-term 3,000-yr control simulation (CTRL) to evaluate unforced natural variability; (2) an ensemble driven by natural forcing only (NATURAL, 1921-2100) to provide a baseline with only natural forcing (i.e., volcanic eruptions and solar cycles); (3) two ensembles driven by natural and anthropogenic (greenhouse gases, anthropogenic aerosols, ozone) forcing according to the intermediate Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5 (1921-2100) developed for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6). For SPEAR_LO, we provide data from three different numerical experiments: (1) a long-term 5,000-yr control simulation (CTRL); (2) an ensemble driven by natural forcing only (NATURAL, 1921-2100); (3) one ensembles driven by natural and anthropogenic (greenhouse gases, anthropogenic aerosols, ozone) forcing according to the intermediate Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP5-8.5 (1921-2100). For FLOR provide data from three different numerical experiments: (1) a long-term 2,200-yr control simulation (CTRL); (2) an ensemble driven by natural forcing only (NATURAL, 1921-2100); (3) one ensembles driven by natural and anthropogenic (greenhouse gases, anthropogenic aerosols, ozone) forcing according to the intermediate Radiative Concentration Pathway RCP8.5 (1921-2100). For FLOR_FA provide data from three different numerical experiments: (1) a long-term 3,500-yr control simulation (CTRL); (2) an ensemble driven by natural forcing only (NATURAL, 1921-2100); (3) one ensembles driven by natural and anthropogenic (greenhouse gases, anthropogenic aerosols, ozone) forcing according to the intermediate Radiative Concentration Pathway RCP4.5 (1941-2050). |
