Output analyzed as part of Persad, G. The Dependence of Aerosols’ Global and Local Precipitation Impacts on Emitting Region. SLAB OCEAN SIMULATIONS Structure of filenames: [Variable].[Simulation_Name].ts.001-100.ANN.nc All files contain the annual, 100-year timeseries for a single variable. For analysis, the first 40 years are considered to be the model equilibration period. Years 40-100 are used as the equilibrated signal. Variables: TREFHT = 2D Surface Air Temperature PREC = 2D Convective and Largescale Precipitation Rates E_2000_CAM5_1850aero = Control simulation, year 2000 conditions in all but anthropogenic aerosols, anthropogenic aerosols at year 1850 values. E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_BRonly_Jan18 = Brazil-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of Brazil E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_CHonly_Jan18 = China-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of China E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_EAonly_Jan18 = East Africa-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of East Africa E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_EUonly_Jan18 = Europe-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of Western Europe E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_INonly_Jan18 = India-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of India E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_NESonly_Jan18 = Indonesia-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of Indonesia E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_USonly_Jan18 = US-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of the United States E_2000_CAM5_1850aero_SAonly_Jan18 = South Africa-only perturbation simulation, control simulation conditions, but with fixed aerosol perturbation added within geographic boundaries of South Africa ATMOSPHERE-ONLY SIMULATIONS Structure of filenames: [Variable].[Simulation_Name].ts.001-60.ANN.nc OR [Variable].[Simulation_Name].mon.001-60.nc Files contain either the annual, 60-year timeseries ('...ANN.nc') or the monthly, 60-year timeseries ('...mon....nc') for a single variable. For analysis, the first 20 years are considered to be the model equilibration period. Years 20-60 are used as the equilibrated signal.
