CM2.x atmosphere land extremes variable list by table
Table A4: Extremes indices data (longitude, latitude, time:annual)
To learn about the directory structure used in storing CM2.0 data on this
server, see the FAQ How are the
CM2.0 model output files arranged in directories on the GFDL Data
Portal?.
The variables and output variable names listed in this table are consistent
with those of the IPCC/PCMDI archive as outlined in their document titled
IPCC Standard Output from Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere GCMs
