Each Output variable record corresponds to a physical parameter specification.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| cell_measures | area: areacella |
| cell_methods | amn-twm (Area and Time Mean) |
| cmip6_frequency | mon |
| cmip6_tables_identifier | CFmon (Monthly data associated with cloud forcing) |
| cmip7_frequency | mon |
| contitional | True |
| description | Percentage liquid-cloud cover in optical depth categories, as seen by the MODIS instrument simulator. Dimensions of tau (optical depth) and cloud-top pressure are the same used by clisccp (ISCCP simulator). |
| modelling_realm | Atmospheric |
| name | CFmon.clmodisliquid |
| physical_parameter | clmodisliquid (MODIS Liquid-Topped Cloud Area Fraction) |
| processing_note | 7 pressure levels x 7 optical depth levels. THIS VARIABLE SHOULD HAVE NO EXTRA COORDINATE - "p1000" is selected simply to submit this form. [BD removed the p1000 coordinate on 4/9/24] |
| spatial_shape | XY-na (Global field (single level)) |
| temporal_shape | time-intv (Temporal Interval) |
| title | MODIS Liquid Topped Cloud Area Fraction |
