Abstract

The National Institute of Meteorological Sciences (NIMS) of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) is participating in CMIP6 to produce climate change projections for the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). Based on the KMA Advanced Community Earth-system model (K-ACE) and UK Earth System Model (UKESM1) in collaboration with the MetOffice, UK, we will take part in ScenarioMIP and AerChemMIP to model long-term climate simulations under the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways for IPCC AR6. The experiment output dataset will be enormous, with management and world-wide dissemination critical to meeting global goals. In order to support data access, a node in the Earth System Grid Federation has been developed. We applied the postprocessing method to publish CMIP6 data to the ESGF; this postprocessing method includes the international standard data conversion (CMORization) and quality assurance (QA) processes. These CMORization and QA processes are mandatory for publishing data to ESGF and increase the reliability of the data. We expect that shortening the time needed from model simulation to delivering data through the ESGF node will improve climate change science outcomes and will facilitate the CMIP activities of various users.
