Description:
historicalMisc is an experiment of the CMIP5 - Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 ( https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5 ). CMIP5 is meant to provide a framework for coordinated climate change experiments for the next five years and thus includes simulations for assessment in the AR5 as well as others that extend beyond the AR5.

List of output variables: https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5/datadescription.html
Output: time series per variable in model grid spatial resolution in netCDF format
Earth System model and the simulation information: CIM repository

Used forcings in individual ensemble runs (see attached addinfo for more information or at http://data.giss.nasa.gov/modelE/ar5/ ):
r[1-5]i1p1 - NoAIE;
r[1-5]i1p102 - Sl: anthropogenic sulfate aerosol, accounting only for indirect effects;
r[1-5]i1p103 - Vl: volcanic aerosol;
r[1-5]i1p104 - LU: land-use change;
r[1-5]i1p105 - Oz: stratospheric and tropospheric ozone from concentration;
r[1-5]i1p106 - AAdirect: anthropogenic tropospheric aerosol: direct effect only (via concentration);
r[1-5]i1p107 - AA: anthropogenic tropospheric aerosol: direct and indirect effect only (via concentration);
r[1-5]i1p108 - BCsnow: black carbon on snow only;
r[1-5]i1p109 - Ant: anthropogenic forcing (a mixture, not explicitly defined here, that might include, for example, well-mixed greenhouse gases, aerosols, ozone, and land-use changes);
r[1-5]i1p302 - Sl: anthropogenic sulfate aerosol, accounting only for indirect effects;
r[1-5]i1p303 - Vl: volcanic aerosol;
r[1-5]i1p309 - Ant: anthropogenic forcing (a mixture, not explicitly defined here, that might include, for example, well-mixed greenhouse gases, aerosols, ozone, and land-use changes);
r[1-5]i1p310 - AA: anthropogenic tropospheric aerosol via emissions of SO2, black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC), NH3;
r[1-5]i1p311 - SLG: anthropogenic tropospheric reactive gases (emissions of NOx, CO, volatile organic compounds - VOCs, CH4);
r[1-5]i1p312 - ODS: emissions of CFCs;
r[1-5]i1p313 - GHGnoCH4: CO2, N2O, small misc. gases by concentration, not CH4.
