Simulated length of 71 Alpine glaciers over the last millennium using OGGM

<p>This dataset contains the simulated length of 71 Alpine glaciers over the last millennium using the <a href="https://github.com/OGGM/oggm">version 1.0 of the Open Global Glacier Model</a> (OGGM) forced by global climate models (GCM) simulation outputs. For a description of the experimental design, see the associated publication:<br> <br> <a href="https://www.clim-past-discuss.net/cp-2018-48/">Goosse, H., Barriat, P.-Y., Dalaiden, Q., Klein, F., Marzeion, B., Maussion, F., Pelucchi, P. and Vlug, A.: Testing the consistency between changes in simulated climate and Alpine glacier length over the past millennium, Climate of the Past, 2018.</a><br> <br> Each NetCDF file corresponds to OGGM driven by one climate model over the period 1000-2004 CE. The file names are based on the acronyms given in the Table 1 of the associated publication. The variables included in the NetCDF files are:<br> <br> - g_length: Annual mean length of the glaciers, in meters<br> <br> - ID_glacier: an identifier for each glacier, allowing to make the link to the names of the glaciers given in glacier_names.txt.<br> <br> - time_year: the time in years CE<br> <br> In order to remove high frequency variability associated with the presence of snow that may remain in summer at altitudes lower than the glacier front, a filter with a 5-year window has been applied on the OGGM outputs to obtain the results stored in g_length.</p> <p>Please contact <a href="mailto:hugues.goosse@uclouvain.be">Hugues Goosse</a> for more information.
