A report entitled 'MODIS-simulator for process-oriented climate model evaluation' was posted on the <strong>EUCLIPSE</strong> web site (http://www.euclipse.eu/products.html) in January of 2011, in partial fulfilment of Deliverable 1.2. The report explains the structure and functionality of the simulator and provides the simulator code. In addition to the COSP and MODIS simulator packages, a CALIPSO-PARASOL observational analysis product was created by LMD. The GCM Oriented Cloud Calipso Product (CALIPSO-GOCCP) is designed to evaluate GCM cloudiness. CALIPSO-GOCCP contains observational cloud diagnostics fully consistent with the ones simulated by the ensemble "GCM+ CALIPSO simulator" (COSP-CAPSIM): same spatial resolution for the lidar profile before the cloud detection, and same cloud detection threshold. CALIPSO-GOCCP is derived from CALIPSO Level 1 NASA product. A report entitled 'CALIPSO-GOCCP product' was posted on the <strong>EUCLIPSE</strong> web site (http://www.euclipse.eu/products.html) in January of 2011, that completes the fulfilment of Deliverable 1.2. The report explains the structure and character of the data and provides the link to the full dataset. 10
Figure 2. COSP outputs from one July month of an atmosphere-ocean coupled simulation of HadGEM2 with preindustrial forcings. The left-hand side column shows globally-averaged results, and the right-hand side column shows averages over the tropical belt (15 o S-15 o N): (a,b) ISCCP histograms, (c,d) CALIPSO histograms, and (e,f) CloudSat histograms. 11
