> how can you convert CMIP5 model output time to the Julian day?

I don't know how CMIP5 does this, but normally time is expressed as "number of days since 1600-01-01", or something like that. So, to create the correct Julian day number you do this:

time = time + Julday(1,1,1600,0,0,0)

Then, when you want months, days, and years, you convert these Julian values with CatDat:

CatDat, time, month, day, year

Cheers,

David

Not sure what the format of the CMIP5 time is, but I think you'll want to look at the JULDAY function:
