11tauuSurface Downward Eastward Wind StressTAUXtauu = -TAUXyesJ.Zhang Note, I was analyzing this variable from e3sm output. It turns out that TAUX(Y) is surface stress, which is in opposite direction to tauu(v) (wind stress). This was not caught in CAM's conversion table.

interpolated to 19 pressure levels.

Philip Cameron-Smith (Unlicensed): Yes, the E3SM variable O3 is what is wanted here.  However, it would be good to note somehow that "Stratospheric ozone is prognostic, and tropospheric ozone follows the input4mips prescribed concentrations."

rlut = FSNTOA - FSNT + FLNT

yes

Chris Golaz

Equation originally from NCAR. Using this ensures that individual TOA terms (SW, LW, up/down) are consistent with TOM net flux (rtmt):

rtmt = rsdt - rsut - rlut




35rlutcsTOA Outgoing Clear-Sky Longwave RadiationFLUTCrlutcs = FLUTCyes

 Chris Golaz

Slight approximation here since we are using TOM, but NCAR does the same.

J. Zhang

We cannot use monthly h0 output for this. But the necessary data is in daily h1 files. We would have to create time series of monthly averages from these daily files. double checked that TREFHTMX and TREFHTMN saved to h1 have the same values as TREFHT. Checked code in cam_diagnostics.F90, TREFMNAV and TREFMXAV should be the correct field to output. Unfortunately, those high frequency data saved are not useful
