1.5 Experiments: historical well-mixed GHG-only run (hist-GHG)

Record Label : hist-GHG

Record Title : historical well-mixed GHG-only run

Record identifier : f16d8f5c-dd9e-11e6-b89b-ac72891c3257

Description : Historical greenhouse-gas only simulations resemble the historical simulations but instead are forced by well-mixed greenhouse gas changes only. Models with interactive chemistry schemes should either turn off the chemistry or use a preindustrial climatology of stratospheric and tropospheric ozone in their radiation schemes. This will ensure that ozone is fixed in all these simulations, and simulated responses in models with and without coupled chemistry are comparable. Report what sets of emissions and boundary conditions are used.
