CMIP5 and CMIP6 post-processed AMOC and MLD data supporting Jesse et al. 2023

These are the datasets supporting the paper "Why is CMIP6 projecting larger ocean dynamic sea level in the North Sea than CMIP5?" from Jesse et al. submitted to ERL.

See the paper for more information about the data and GitHub for the code that generated the data: https://github.com/dlebars/CMIP_SeaLevel

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is computed at two latitudes 26N and 35N from different CMIP variables:

cmip5_amoc is computed from the variable "msftmyz".

cmip6_amoc is computed from the variable "msftmz" or "msftyz" as indicated in the name of the file.

cmip5_amoc_vo and cmip6_amoc_vo are computed from the meridional ocean velocity ("vo").

For mixed layer depth the variable "mlotst" is used.
