Specifications
PMIP4-CMIP6 specifications | |
---|---|
Astronomical parameters | eccentricity = 0.018682 obliquity = 24.105° perihelion-180° = 0.87° Date of vernal equinox : March 21 at noon |
Trace gases | CO2 = 264.36 ppm CH4 = 584.93 ppb N2O = 258.56 ppb CFC = 0 O3 = same as in CMIP6 piControl |
Solar activity | Same as in CMIP6 piControl |
Ice sheets | Same as in CMIP6 piControl |
Topography and coastlines | Same as in CMIP6 piControl |
Volcanic activity | Same as in CMIP6 piControl |
Aerosols | Modified sources, atmospheric concentrations or radiative forcing, depending on model complexity cf. documenting papers: Otto-Bliesner et al, in prep and Kageyama et al, subm. Access to data |
Vegetation | Depending on model complexity: Interactive vegetation or Interactive carbon cycle (LAI) or Prescribed to present-day values or mid-Holocene values computed from off-line vegetation model The methodology to represent vegetation should be the same as for the CMIP6 piControl simulation cf. documenting papers: Otto-Bliesner et al, in prep and Kageyama et al, subm. |
