Sensitivity of the global ocean carbon sink to the ocean skin in a climate model : IPSL-CM6 dataset

Daily outputs of 2000-2014 historical run with IPSL-CM6 (Boucher et al. 2020) with Bellenger et al. (2017) parameterization of the ocean skin (Bellenger et al. 2023)

CM62-OSCO2-hist-2000-2014-1D.nc contains air-sea CO2 fluxes:

F_CTL : Prognostic classical bulk flux from the control (CTL) run

F_MBL_CTL : Diagnostic flux using the interactive ocean skin and the equilibrium model (Woolf et al. 2016) from the CTL run

F_TBL_CTL : Diagnostic flux using the interactive ocean skin and the rapid model (Woolf et al. 2016) from the CTL run

F_Wat_CTL : Diagnostic flux using a uniform ocean skin (Watson et al. 2020)  from the CTL run

F_MBL_CPL: Prognostic flux using the interactive ocean skin and the equilibrium model from the coupled (CPL) run

CM62-OSCO2-hist-2000-2014-1D_oceanskin.nc contains ocean skin related outputs:

tos / sos : Temperature / salinity of the ocean model's first level

t_int / s_int : Temperature /salinity at the interface

t_mbl / s_mbl : Temperature /salinity at the base of the Mass Boundary Layer (MBL)

t_tbl : Temperature at the base of the Thermal Boundary Layer (TBL)
