1.5 Experiments: pre-industrial climatological SSTs and forcing, but with doubled emissions of DMS (piClim-2xDMS)

Record Label : piClim-2xDMS

Record Title : pre-industrial climatological SSTs and forcing, but with doubled emissions of DMS

Record identifier : 70e44a80-54ca-11e7-a104-5404a60d96b5

Description : Fixed SST ERF simulation. Use pre-industrial climatological average SST and sea-ice distributions. Apply pre-industrial concentrations of WMGHG (well mixed greenhouse gases). The oceanic DMS (dimethyl sulphide) aerosol emission fluxes in the interactive parameterisation are double their pre-industrial value. All other NTCF (near term climate forcers) are set to pre-industrial levels. For models that do not interactively parameterise particular emissions, the fluxes from the 1850 climatological dataset should be doubled. This is a timeslice experiment of 30 years total.
