We are a team working on causal ML and climate, and are willing to use ESMValTools for downloading and preprocessing climate datasets. The only limitation is that we need the data from Input4MIPs for our analysis.

Since ESMValTools already has the infrastructure to work with ESGF data, we were hoping that Input4MIPs data could be added to ESMValTools, and this would allow to study the impact of various forcings on the climate.

Would you be able to help out?

We have been in contact with @schlunma who suggested that I open an issue. I have some time and am willing to help out but I have never worked with ESMValTools and don't necessary have the skills to do this.

Thank you
