E0
|
Purpose: simulate historical climate from 1955 to 2005 in WACCM4.
Forcings: HadISST used for SST; surface emissions scenario based on
RCP4.5 emissions scenario from Coupled Model Inter-comparison project 5
(CMIP5); spectrally resolved solar variability; the SPARC CCMVal REF-B2
scenario recommendations applied to volcanic aerosols; Quasi-Biennial
Oscillation (QBO) determined by the observed zonal wind.
|
E1
|
Purpose: simulate historical climate from 1900 to 2005 in CAM5.
Forcings: HadISST used for SST; surface emissions scenario based on
RCP4.5 emissions scenario from CMIP5; spectrally resolved solar
variability; the SPARC CCMVal REF-B2 scenario recommendations applied to
volcanic aerosols.

E2
|
Purpose: simulate climate from 1955 to 2005 under the influence of IPWP
warming in WACCM4.
Forcings: The same as E0, but HadISST used for SST, 12-month cycle
climatological means from 1955 to 2005 used except IPWP (30°S to 30°N,
30°E to 180°) where based observed SST.
|
E3
|
Purpose: simulate climate from 1900 to 2005 under the influence of IPWP
warming in CAM5.
Forcings: The same as E1, but HadISST used for SST, 12-month cycle
climatological means from 1900 to 2005 used except IPWP (30°S to 30°N,
30°E to 180°) where based observed SST.
