Input and output files for simulations of a cold air outbreak (CONSTRAIN). Large Eddy Simulation (LES) performed with DALES (Dutch Atmospheric LES). Initial profiles and large scale forcings of all simulations are included. They outputs provided include: 3D fields, time series of profiles of prognostic variables, tendencies and other variables (e.g cloud fraction).
