CTSM-EXICE model output: Permafrost thaw and ground subsidence in the Arctic

This dataset contains model output from the Community Terrestrial Systems Model, CTSM (corresponds to the Community Land Model version 5, CLM5), utilizing excess ground ice configuration (CTSM-EXICE) in the biogeochemistry (BGC) mode over the domain of the Arctic at 0.1° horizontal resolution using boundary conditions from a set of global and regional climate model (GCM-RCM) combinations: CNRM-ICON, NorESM-ICON, CNRM-HCLIM, and NorESM-HCLIM. For context, GCMs utilized were run at 1° resolution based on two selected storylines (CNRM-ESM2-1 - strong warming in the Barents-Kara Sea and weak Arctic amplification, and NorESM2-MM - weak warming in the Barents-Kara Sea and strong Arctic amplification) and the SSP3-7.0 scenario for the future simulations. ICON and HCLIM were run on 0.1° and used to downscale the respective storylines. This dataset provides outputs from four CTSM-EXICE simulations, each forced by one of the respective four forcings. The CTSM-EXICE simulations utilize the same projection (polar stereographic) and resolution (0.1°) as their forcings. Each simulation comprises a 390-year spin-up, a historical run (1985-2014), and a future simulation (2015-2099) following the SSP3-7.0 scenario. CTSM-EXICE spin-up is forced by historical output (1985-2014) from four forcing datasets. The repeatable cycling of these 30 years was done 13 times (390 years of spin-up). The historical and future CTSM-EXICE simulations were driven by the historical and future outputs from four forcings, respectively. Restart files are provided for all simulation stages.
All files in this dataset are on a monthly resolution.
