Simulation Outputs Description
---------------------------

This text file outlines the contents of the simulation outputs utilized in the analysis presented in Clerc et al. (2023). Pre-treated outputs are not provided for storage reasons, but the complete output can be made available upon request. Spatial files are regridded to a 1-degree resolution regular grid using the treatment: cdo remapdis,r360x180 in.nc out.nc.

Folder Names:
--------------

Here is a brief overview of the content within each folder.
