Each Output variable record corresponds to a physical parameter specification.
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| cell_methods | vsm-clim (Integral over Atmospheric Volume and Time Climatology) |
| cmip6_frequency | monC |
| cmip6_tables_identifier | Amon (Monthly atmospheric data) |
| cmip7_frequency | mon |
| conditional | True |
| description | Total atmospheric mass of Carbon Dioxide |
| dimensions | time2 |
| disambiguation | massCLim |
| flag_-_variable_change_since_cmip6 | True |
| modelling_realm | Atmospheric |
| name | Amon.co2massCLim |
| physical_parameter | co2 (Mole Fraction of CO2) |
| processing_note | Report only for simulations (e.g., prescribed concentration pi-control run), in which the CO2 does not vary from one year to the next. Report 12 monthly values, starting with January, even if the values do not vary seasonally. When calling CMOR, identify this variable as co2massClim, not co2mass. If CO2 is spatially nonuniform, omit this field, but report Mole Fraction of CO2 (see the table entry before the previous one). CHANGE SINCE CMIP6: compound name, |
| provenance | Amon ((isd.003)) |
| spatial_shape | na-na (Global mean or constant) |
| temporal_shape | climatology (Climatological Mean) |
