Overview of the ENSEMBLES RT2B and RT3 experiments

Updated 12/1/2010

Data are collected in files with at most 10 years of data for daily and sub-daily fields. There will normally be sub-directories FIX for constant fields; 6H for 6-hourly sampling of instantaneous values, corresponding 12H and 24H directories; DM for daily mean fields and finally MM with monthly means in files with the entire simulated period. Please refer to the RCM output list for details about the fields and file names etc.
