NorStore Research Data Archive: Guidelines for ingestion of NorESM output

The recommendations presented on this page are based on discussion between Alok, Mats and Ingo. Please feel free to comment and modify them.

We recommend to use following formula:

<MODEL ACRONYM> <PROJECT> <OFFICIAL EXPERIMENT ACRONYM> r<realisation number>[<realisation letter>] <output type> 

Examples,

• NorESM1-M CMIP5 historicalExt r1 raw output
• NorESM1-ME CMIP5 rcp85 r1a raw output
• NorESM1-ME CMIP5 rcp85 r1 cmor-processed output

<realisation letter> is used if an experiment is composed of several cases, e.g., NorESM1-ME CMIP5 rcp85 r1 is associated with the cases NRCP85AERCNOC_f19_g16_01 and NRCP85AERCNOC_f19_g16_02.
