Early ACCESS-ESM1.6 ILAMB Evaluation Pipeline Using ACCESS-MOPPy

@RhaegarZeng and @rbeucher , a couple of issues we’ve noticed.

  1. The GlobalNetEcosystemCarbonBalance model data is likely not being calculated correctly. We suspect land-use change emissions are not being included when it should be. Can you clarify how you calculated this from the model output? There are a couple of ways to do it. Must also be careful with units as some are flux of C while others are flux of CO2.
  2. The data for NetEcosystemExchange for all ESM1.6 results show near zero mean flux. Something has gone awry here, perhaps an incorrect time-period? Or results were taken from a piControl run by mistake?
  3. Given point 2, it is worth checking all other ESM1.6 results as well to ensure the correct run and time-period are being selected. If NetEcosystemExchange is wrong, I suspect possibly a few others could be too, especially EcosystemRespiration and GrossPrimaryProductivity.

Including @RachelLaw and @clairecarouge here as they commented as well (see here).

Cheers
