Creators

  • 1. Australian Antarctic Program Partnership, Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia

Description

The ACCESS-AM2 (Australian Community Climate and Earth-System Simulator - Atmospheric Model Version 2) data and k-means analysis used for the study described in Fiddes et al. 2022 'Southern Ocean cloud and shortwave radiation biases in a nudged climate model simulation: does the model ever get it right?' . 

Included files: 

  • modis_cluster_centres_2015-2019.nc  - kmeans derived cluster centres for MODIS
  • modis_cluster_labels_2015-2019.nc  -  kmeans derived cluster labels for MODIS 
  • bx400_cluster_labels_2015-2019.nc  -  kmeans fitted cluster label for model 
  • COSP_vars_bx400_2015-2019.nc  -  model data for analysis 

The code that performs the analysis/generates this data and has instructions for where to download MODIS data can be found here: https://github.com/sfiddes/code_for_publications_2022/tree/main/ACCESS_cloud_radiation_eval

Notes

This project was funded by the Australian Government as part of the Antarctic Science Collaboration Initiative program, under the Australian Antarctic Program Partnership, ASCI000002.
