To comply with OCMIP-2 guidelines, all modelers must make simulations according to OCMIP-2 standard boundary conditions. To do so, one must first recuperate the following files via this Web page (you can save a file to disk by clicking a link while holding down the Shift key).
After transferring the file gasx_ocmip2.nc.gz (binary mode), one
must then uncompress it:
gunzip gasx_ocmip2.nc
Other files are text and need no special treatment after transfer. Use of these files is described below.
