Coarse-grained Near-global Aqua-planet Simulation with Computed Dynamical Tendencies

This dataset includes the coarse-grained 3D state of the near-global CRM simulations (NG-Aqua). The simulation is run at a 4km resolution using the System for Atmospheric Modeling (SAM)

A dataset derived from the same simulation is included at the 10.5281/zenodo.1226370. This current posting supplements this dataset with the dynamical tendencies for total water and liquid-ice potential temperature, respectively given by FQT and FSLI. These are computed by initializing SAM run at a 160km resolution with the coarse-grained fields from NG-Aqua; evolving the state forward for 10 30 second time steps; saving the output; and finally computing the difference with the initial condition.

This netCDF dataset is split into several part files for more robust uploading/downloading. To download this data, download each "part" file, and combine them with the "cat" linux command:

cat noBlur.nc.part?? > noBlur.nc

If using this with the uwnet code repository, you should then move this file to "data/processed/training/noBlur.nc", creating that folder if necessary.
