This experiment comprises 4 different simulations:

- hind-cast simulations, free-running

- SSTs/SICs: global data set HadISST provided by the UK Met Office Hadley Centre

- model data output mostly as 10-hourly global snapshots, monthly averages or as monthly accumulated variables, on model levels or pressure levels, respectively
