In each folder, the following file can be found: - state.cdf.in - the configuration file used as an intial condition to launch each simulation Some folders have multiple state.cdf.in files for each run of the same simulation, if only part of the data was needed to be reproduced. Additionally, most folders contain: - LSD.info/main.info - Contains details of the parameters for each simulation, which can be used for reference when recompiling the code - LSD.out/main.out - the exectuable used to submit a simulation to a hpc; for the code to be reran, this would have to be recompiled (see Leeds_Dynamo_Code_Manual.pdf) - run.bolt/run.sh - the scripts used to submit a simulation to the leeds hpc (.sh file) or archer2 (.bolt file) Details of how to run the Leeds dynamo code can be found in Leeds_Dynamo_Code_Manual.pdf, which contains a more in-depth description of input parameters, boundary conditions, output data etc. The parameters for each simulation can also be found in the spreadsheet 'SimulationsLog'. More details about the difference between thermally-driven and thermochemically-driven cases can be found in Nakagawa and Davies, 2022. Note all simulations have Prandtl number Pr=1. We have ran a series of simulations to help us elucidate the origin of rapid changes in the Earth's magnetic field. Observational models of the magnetic field have found changes in field intensity and direction that significantly faster than the values and averages for the modern field. The simulations provided here have been analysed to find the features that best reproduce dynamical and morphological agreement with the observed field, as well as to find rapid changes in the simulated field that are in agreement with that of the observed field (see Nakagawa and Davies 2022). Simulations have been ran using the Leeds Dynamo Code, and the configuration files provided here allow users to reproduce and interpret the data used for analysis.
