The aquaplanet simulation was produced by prescribing a zonally symmetric sea-surface temperature profile and by removing land, sea-ice, and the seasonal cycle from the model. Unlike previous aquaplanet simulations (https://doi.org/10.5065/cam1-v353), this simulation had an SST profile with an off-equator maximum at 10N to allow for the formation of tropical cyclones. A variable resolution mesh was used with 3 km cell spacing between 10S and 30N, transitioning to 15 km cell spacing elsewhere. The simulation was integrated for 160 days, but the first 30 days were discarded for model spinup. This dataset contains post processed output interpolated to a r1440x720 fixed grid with approximate grid spacing of 0.25 degree. completed datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact notPlanned dataset https://gdex.ucar.edu/images/ds_logos/default_200_200.png Logo thumbnail from URL png HDF5/NetCDF4 dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral MODELS > MODELS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-04-15 revision 23.7 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > WEATHER EVENTS > TROPICAL CYCLONES EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > OCEAN TEMPERATURE > OCEAN TEMPERATURE PROFILES U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-04-15 revision 23.7 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 135571.597 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d583150/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d583150/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
