====== PMIP4 ICE-6G-C ice-sheet data ======

===== Grid =====

  * nb_lat, nb_lon = 1080, 2160 (regular 10 minutes intervals)
  * latitude_values = [ -89.91667175, -89.75, -89.58334351, ... 89.58333588,  89.75      ,  89.91666412 ]
  * longitude_values = [ 0.,  0.16666667,  0.33333334, ... 359.5,  359.66668701,  359.83334351 ]
  * NO time axis (1 time step per file)

===== Time steps and data files =====

  * 48 time steps in 48 files, from 0k to 26k BP : data every 500 years from 0k to 21k BP, then every 1000 years till 26k BP
  * file names = ''I6_C.VM5a_10min.<time_slice>.nc''\\ with <time_slice> in [0, 0.5, 1, ..., 20, 20.5, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26]
  * all the variables for the same time step are in the same file

===== Variables =====

  * **Topo**: Topography (Point-value altitude), meters
    * on continents: surface altitude (including grounded ice sheet)
    * on ice-free oceans, and where there is floating ice (ice shelves): bathymetry
  * **Orog**: Orography (Point-value surface altitude), meters
    * on continents: altitude (including grounded ice sheet)
    * on ice-free oceans: 0.0 (zero)
    * on ice-shelves: surface altitude
  * **sftlf**: Point-value Landmask, %
    * values are ''0'' (not land) or ''100'' (land)
    * does not include floating ice
  * **sftgif**: Point-value Icemask, %
    * values are ''0'' (not ice) or ''100'' (ice)
    * floating ice is included

Notes:

  * Computing the ''sftlf-sftgif'' difference yields:
    * 100: where there is land without ice
    * -100: where there is floating ice-sheet
    * 0: elsewhere
