+# DYAMOND summer initial conditions
+
+## Overview
+The DYnamics of the Atmospheric general circulation Modeled On Non-hydrostatic Domains (DYAMOND) protocol provides a framework for the intercomparison of global storm-resolving models.
+This artifact contains the initial conditions needed for the DYAMOND summer simulations, which simulate 40 days and nights, begining on 1 August 2016.
+
+## File summmary
