    The CSIRO Dawn-2100 archive contains datasets for atmospheric, land and oceanographic variables for the approximate period 1850 - 2100 (dependent on model). These have been created through the concatenation of 20th century (20C3M) and other scenario (currently SRESA1B or SRESA2) data from a number of the 25 differant global climate models (GCM) from various countries. The SRESA2_va dataset contains the Northward wind variable for various GCM's and runs (multiple runs being averaged to a single file if existing) under the scenario SRESA2 emissions 2001 to 2100. 1 GCM model is available with data for variables being in 12 month, annual and 4 seasons(DJF, MAM,JJA,SON) format with 5 files totaling 1.40 GB as Netcdf files. Available for internal use and analysis by CSIRO staff on the HPSC cherax.

The SRESA2_tmaxmin dataset contains the Air temperature near surface max and min variables for various GCM's and runs (multiple runs being averaged to a single file if existing) under the scenario SRESA2 emissions 2001 to 2100. These variables have also been further analysed to give monthly, seasonal and annual trend data, calculated from a monthly timeseries referenced to the area-weighted mean global warming values. 5 GCM models are available with data for variables being in 12 month, annual and 4 seasons(DJF, MAM,JJA,SON) format with 16 files totaling 1.74 GB as Netcdf files.

The SRESA2_cal_evap dataset in particular contains the Morton variables Lake evaporation (EVAP), Areal actual evapotranspiration (AVAP), Point potential evapotranspiration (PVAP) and Areal potential evapotranspiration (WVAP) (which have been calculated from GCM outputs of air temperature, (calculated) relative humidity, solar radiation, annual rainfall average for 1975-2004 and monthly constants of `a and b` to calculate sunshine ratio) under the SRESA2 scenario emissions from 2001 to 2100 . These variables have also been further analysed to give monthly, seasonal and annual trend data, calculated from a monthly timeseries referenced to the area-weighted mean global warming values. 8 GCM models are available with data for variables being in 12 month, annual and 4 seasons(DJF, MAM,JJA,SON) format with 80 files totaling 12.5 GB as Netcdf files.

    The CSIRO Mk 3.0 climate system model contains a comprehensive representation of the four major components of the climate system (atmosphere, land surface, oceans and sea-ice). There are a simulations for a range of scenarios available for this model and also for the later CSIRO Mk 3.5 model. This simulation uses scenario PIcntrl which represents a Pre-industrial control experiment. This is a standard experiment for model intercomparisons. The scenario includes standard daily and monthly meteorological, and monthly oceanographic variables as netCDF files organised by variable and time period, totalling 4020 files. The data are accessible to authorised users via an OpenDAP server at CSIRO HPSC, and also from PCMDI in the U.S.A. It is also a contribution to the WCRP CMIP3 multi-model database and meets their formatting standards.

There are a simulations for a range of scenarios available for this model and also for the later CSIRO Mk 3.5 model. This simulation uses scenario Commit, which represents a commited climate change scenario with constant year 2000 GHG(Green House Gas) concentrations. This is a standard experiment for model intercomparisons. The scenario includes standard daily and monthly meteorological, and monthly oceanographic variables as netCDF files organised by variable and time period, totalling 900 files.
