The EPOCA model-output archive is a joint facility for EPOCA and CARBOOCEAN and it is available on DODS server at

http://dods.extra.cea.fr/cgi-bin/nph-dods/data/p48bopp/CARBOOCEAN/

The EPOCA model-output archive contains 4 Earth System models:

• BCCR, Bergen
• IPSL, Paris
• MPIM, Hamburg
• UNIBE/NCAR, Bern

The standard output (OCMIP-4 guidelines) of these models in the archive are:

• netCDF files
• consistent file & variable names
• annual means: 1860-2100
• monthly means: 1860-1869, 1980-2009, 2090-2099

The model-output archive will be enhanced under EPOCA by:

• more models
• more simulations
• more variables (pH, Omegas, CO32-, CO2*,HCO3-, fCO2, ...)

Different ways to exploit EPOCA Model-output archive:

• Download files from DODS address … but files are big (often >1 Gb)
• Manually access DODS files remotely, e.g., ferret
