Model output postprocessed with Afterburner and CDO (https://code.zmaw.de/projects) 2012-08-01T14:26:41Z CMOR rewrote data to comply with CF standards and CMIP5 requirements.
comment :
Equilibrium reached after more than 1500-year spin-up of the physics, 200-year spin-up of carbon content and 276 year at pre-industrial GHG concentrations after which data were output with nominal date of January 1850.
