[{"name":"flynn-2022-icon-drag-1","title":"Selected output from ICON global atmosphere simulations, at ~160 km resolution, with varying turbulent drag","summary":"This dataset contains the subset of output from simulations performed with the ICON general circulation model in aquaplanet configuration with r2b4 horizontal resolution (approximately 160 km) with varying turbulent drag used to investigate the impact of drag on the tropical atmosphere.\r\n\r\nAll latitudes are included in the output, and output selection includes both 2D and 3D variables, such as precipitation, air temperature, vertical velocity, zonal and meridional velocity, 2D cloud fraction, and radiative fluxes at the top of atmosphere and surface.\r\n\r\nThe output fields are hemispheric-, zonal-, and time-mean averages, and so represent a climatology for each simulation. Example ICON run scripts are also included, to show how the control simulations are set up and how the turbulent drag parameter that controls the magnitude of the turbulent drag in ICON is varied easily with the namelist within the run script.","citations":"Flynn CM, Mauritsen T (2022) Hadley circulation and tropical precipitation response to variations in turbulent drag.
