 ====== PMIP4 HadGEM2-A dust data ====== ====== PMIP4 HadGEM2-A dust data ======
  
-===== Grid =====+The simulation of the pre-industrial and LGM climate states with HadGEM2-A are described in more detail by Hopcroft & Valdes (2015), whilst the dust results are described by Hopcroft et al (2015). The dust scheme itself has been documented by Woodward (2011). HadGEM2-ES is documented by Collins et al (2011).
