1.5 Experiments: Atmosphere time slice with present day coupled model SST and future Arctic SIC (modelSST-futArcSIC)

Record Label : modelSST-futArcSIC

Record Title : Atmosphere time slice with present day coupled model SST and future Arctic SIC

Record identifier : 661fa328-4e15-11e8-be0a-1c4d70487308

Description : Atmosphere-only time slice experiment to investigate the role of the background state. Time slice forced by future sea ice concentration (SIC) and present day sea surface temperature (SST) from the coupled model experiment pa-pdSIC (2.1) rather than from observations. Radiative forcing to be set to present day (year 2000) levels. Future SIC will be computed from the ensemble of CMIP5 projections by PAMIP. Sea ice thickness should be specified according to the CMIP6 AMIP protocol. Time slice simulations to begin on 1st April and run for 14 months, the first two months are ignored to allow for an initial model spin up. Minimum ensemble size is 100 simulations.
