ClimateBench

ClimateBench is a benchmark dataset for climate model emulation inspired by WeatherBench. It consists of NorESM2 simulation outputs with asociated forcing data processed in to a consistent format from a variety of experiments performed for CMIP6. Multiple ensemble members are included where available.

Data processing scripts and a baseline model example can be found here.
