CMIP6-C3S-Single_levels

This repository implements and stores a full provenance description of the C3S CMIP6 Projections Dataset for the single-level variables.

The provenance description strictly adheres to CMIP6 controlled vocabularies and incorporates a semantic layer, enhancing the interpretability of provenance information through the CMIP6 vocabularies of METACLIP.

Repo directory structure:

• *CMIP6-C3S-METACLIP-Provenance*: This directory contains the JSON-LD representations of dataset provenance. It is organized into subdirectories by variables, with each file providing a full description of the corresponding variable and scenario.
• R: R scripts involved in output JSON-LD generation
• inst: internal lookup tables and other auxiliary elements

Note:

To inspect the JSON-LD files in more detail, the JSON-LD playground can be used, by entering the Raw file URL.
