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 ice-cloud cover as seen by the MODIS instrument simulator. Dimensions of cloud IWP (cloud ice water path) and r\_eff (effective droplet size). |
| disambiguation | _dup |
| modelling_realm | Atmospheric |
| name | CFmon.clmodisice_dup |
| physical_parameter | clmodisice (MODIS Ice-Topped Cloud Area Fraction) |
| processing_note | 7 IWP levels x 6 effective radius levels. NOTE: "p1000" is chosen as a coordinate to enable form submission and should be ignored. An extra dimension of IWP should also be added to this request (although it is not an option in the form). Metric is further described in [Pincus 2023](https://essd.copernicus.org/articles/15/2483/2023/essd-15-2483-2023-discussion.html). [BD removed the p1000 coordinate on 4/9/24] |
| spatial_shape | XY-na (Global field (single level)) |
| temporal_shape | time-intv (Temporal Interval) |
