1.5 Experiments: pacemaker Pacific experiment (dcppC-pac-pacemaker)

Record Label : dcppC-pac-pacemaker

Record Title : pacemaker Pacific experiment

Record identifier : f16defec-dd9e-11e6-b89b-ac72891c3257

Description : Restore to observed anomalies of sea surface temperature in the tropical eastern Pacific. Outside the restored region the model evolves freely allowing full climate system response. Historical values of atmospheric composition/emissions and solar forcing. Time period: 1950-2014 (run from 1920 if possible). 10 ensemble members. SST signal may also be imposed by altering surface fluxes.
