These are non-exclusive grouping of CMIP variables (e.g. monthly time slices of the baseline variables). Variables can belong to more than one group.

| justification | Meteorological variables of interest to the Southern Ocean BGC to Clouds opportunity. We want to understand how natural aerosol interact with cloud and radiation and this cannot be fully understood without some knowledge of the background atmospheric state. We have requested atmospheric data required to disentangle meteorological influences on aerosol-cloud interactions, such as the large-scale dynamics that drive aerosol and moisture transport. These variables are a subset of those in the baseline request. |
