1.5 Experiments: pulse removal of 100 Gt carbon from pre-industrial atmosphere (esm-pi-cdr-pulse)

Record Label : esm-pi-cdr-pulse

Record Title : pulse removal of 100 Gt carbon from pre-industrial atmosphere

Record identifier : 56ed15d1-b104-11e8-96ca-1c4d70487308

Description : An esm-piControl but with 100 Gt C instantaneously (within 1 timestep) removed from the atmosphere in year 10. If models have CO2 spatially distributed throughout the atmosphere the CO2 the removal should happen in a uniform manner. The CO2 concentration is calculated (i.e. freely evolving). After the negative pulse, ESMs should continue the run for at least 100 years, while EMICs (Earth System Models of Intermediate Complexity) and box models are encouraged to continue the run for at least 1000 years (max 5000 years). Additional ensemble members are requested with tier 2 priority.
