NorESM CMIP5 runs
NorESM CMIP5 runs were completed in summer 2011 and can be downloaded fromthe CMIP5 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project. See Scenarios process for AR5 for a description of the various forcing scenarios.
The following integrations have been completed (CPL is Coupled, A is Atmosphere).
