AMIP_CAM6_LW.tar.gz contains the monthly longwave (LW) cloud radiative kernels (CRKs) derived from 3-hourly CESM AMIP runs (forced with observed SST; year 2003 to year 2013);
AMIP_CAM6_SW.tar.gz contains the monthly shortwave (SW) CRKs, same CESM simulations.

Simulations are run using CESM version 2.1.1 and CAM6;

The CRKs has a dimension of (y,x,i,j,vn). The unit is Wm-2/%.

In these dataset,y=192,  x=288,  i=7, j=7, vn =16 for LW and 14 for SW;
