Record Label : highresSST-future
Record Title : forced atmosphere experiment for 2015-2050 using SST/sea-ice derived from CMIP5 RCP8.5 simulations and a scenario as close to RCP8.5 as possible within CMIP6
Record identifier : 6532c6cc-4cfe-11e7-903f-5404a60d96b5
Description : High forcing (ScenarioMIP SSP5-85) future scenario (2015-2050) atmosphere only simulations at high and standard resolution, with an option to continue to 2100. For optimal comparison between models aerosol concentrations are recommended (rather than emissions). Future SST and SIC are determined from a blend of warming rates derived from an ensemble mean of CMIP5 RCP8.5 simulations and interannual variability derived from the historic 1960-2014 period. At least one ensemble member at high resolution, minimum atmosphere 25-50 km at mid-latitudes. At least one ensemble member at standard model resolution.
