1.5 Experiments: 2015 forecast with added Pinatubo forcing (dcppC-forecast-addPinatubo)

Record Label : dcppC-forecast-addPinatubo

Record Title : 2015 forecast with added Pinatubo forcing

Record identifier : f16fab98-dd9e-11e6-b89b-ac72891c3257

Description : Prediction experiment for 2015 with volcano forcing. Repeat DCPP-A1 2015 forecast (from the dcppA-hindcast experiment) with Pinatubo forcing. Background volcanic aerosol to be the same as that used in the 1991 hindcast. 10 ensemble members. Run each member for at least 5 years, preferably 10 years.

Identifier for experiment group : DcppC3

MIP defining experiment : VolMIP

Model Source Types : AOGCM | AER CHEM BGC

Tier of Experiment : 1 3

Number of Start Dates : 10

Start year : 2014

End year : TBD

Years per Simulation Including all Start Years : 5

Ensemble size : 10 10

Total number of years : 50

Comment : As volc-pinatubo-full, but as decadal prediction runs. Joint experiment with DCPP, forcing input and implementation of the forcing fully comply with the VolMIP protocol
