Based on meetings with land group, more cmorized variables are desired for supporting ilamb analysis. An CLM2 to CMIP conversion table was available (provided by @Daniel Ricciuto): /home/ac.ricciuto/models/ilamb_processing/alm2ilamb_wkflow/clm_to_mip.

A 5 year sample of the CMIP6 ocean data has been setup on NERSC under /global/homes/s/sbaldwin/scratch/cmip_sample/CMIP6/CMIP/E3SM-Project/E3SM-1-0/piControl/r1i1p1f1/

|
| @Tian Zhou | Jul 22, 2019 | yes | Mean monthly comparison shows same spatial patterns and magnitudes in general. Differences between the raw data and CMIP6 data may be caused by the different remapping methods I was using to convert ne30 resolution (raw data) to 1-deg lat long (CMIP6). |

| LITTERC_LOSS contain fluxes (1) from litter to soil = fLitterSoil (2) form litter to atmophsere part 1 = heterotrophic respiration (3) from litter to atmophsere part 2 = fire loss; therefore minus respiration and fire loss from LITTERC_LOSS, the rest is fLitterSoil | @Xiaojuan Yang |
