CMIP download, analysis and plotting scripts for CMIP6 data; also contains plotting scripts for satellite data README.md: Git repository for "Atmospheric cloud-radiative heating in CMIP6 and observations, and its response to surface warming" by Aiko Voigt et al. For the EGU ACP paper accepted in July 2024. Author: Aiko Voigt, IMG, University of Vienna, aiko.voigt@univie.ac.at. The repository contains the following directories: - acp: manuscript files for accepted version but before technical changes for production, allows to link the figure file names to the plotting scripts in the directory plots4paper analysis: scripts for postprocessing the data downloaded from ESGF, including the calculation of radiative heating rates, the thermal tropopause, and time and zonal means; note that geopotential height zg for UKESM and HadGEM models is directly put into the directory "mean" by the postprocessing script - cfmip-sst: netcdf file with SST pattern change used in the CMIP6 amip-future4K simulations - data-download: scripts for retrieving model output from ESGF - obsdata: zonal-mean time-mean estimates of cloud-radiative heating from CCCM and 2B-FLXHR-LIDAR - plots4paper: scripts to generate plots used in the paper, the plots are stored in the subdirectory "figures", from where they are accesses in the latex file; note: the directory contains also figures that were not included in the paper The repo is a (subset) copy from the GitLab repo https://gitlab.phaidra.org/climate/cmip6-cloud-radiative-heating, commit 4b9920be928f3ac00e3ee9da0ae88f9522adb19a. The cmip6-crh repo is internal to the team "Climate Dynamics and Modeling" at IMG, University of Vienna. A public version of the repo is provided at https://gitlab.phaidra.org/climate/voigt-et-al-cmip-cloudradheating-acp2024. The directory paths will need to be adapted by the user to their own local infrastructure. This should be relatively straightforward. The postprocessing scripts for the cloud-radiative heating from CCCM and 2B-FLXHR-LIDAR are provided in a separate repository. Likewise, the CCCM/2B-FLXHR-LIDAR postprocessed data and the CMIP6 postprocessed data (mostly 12-month climatologies) are provided in separate repositories that are given in the data statement of the ACP paper. Good luck and enjoy!
