Model Simulation Output for Deep Ocean Temperature in the Last Millennium

Simulation output data from a 2020 study on the effect of changing ocean circulation on deep ocean temperature over the last millennium. The dataset was created by Jeemijn Scheen and Thomas F. Stocker of the University of Bern and is associated with their paper in Earth System Dynamics Discussions. It includes both a small (5 GB) and a large (22 GB) version for reproducing figures and exploring additional variables.

Use Cases

• Reproducing scientific figures based on the published analysis code and model output.
• Analyzing the relationship between ocean circulation changes and deep ocean temperature over the last millennium.
• Exploring additional climate variables present in the large version of the simulation output.

Strengths

• Dataset is directly linked to a peer-reviewed publication, ensuring research relevance.
• Two size versions are provided, offering flexibility for reproduction (5 GB) or deeper exploration (22 GB).
• The associated analysis code allows for full reproducibility of the paper's figures.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The large dataset version requires loading 22 GB into memory, which may be prohibitive for some users.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
