ILAMBv2.5 benchmarking results comparing E3SMv1.1 CMIP6 historical simulations with multi-model CMIP5 historical simulations

These are the land model benchmarking results for the Energy Exascale Earth System Model version 1.1 (E3SMv1.1) coupled biogeochemistry outputs from CMIP6 historical simulations compared with multi-model CMIP5 historical simulations. The benchmarking results were generated using the International Land Model Benchmarking package version 2.5 (ILAMBv2.5). While the CMIP5 model results were obtained from the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF), the E3SMv1.1 model results included in this analysis were produced from the raw model output using the workflow script at https://github.com/rubisco-sfa/elm2ilamb_wkflow. The script includes the functions of time serialization, conservative regridding and cmorization. The Earth System Modeling Framework (ESMF) "ESMF_RegridWeightGen" tool was used for generating weights for interpolating from the E3SM's cubed sphere grid to a regular lat/lon grid. The web interface for the benchmarking results can be found athttps://www.ilamb.org/ELM/ilamb_e3sm_cbgcv1/The ILAMB software can be obtained fromhttps://github.com/rubisco-sfa/ILAMB
