| climate of the 20th Century experiment (20C3M) | 20C3M | Run 1 | 1860 | 1 | 2000 | 12 | Picntrl | 1860 | run was initiated in year 1854 from year 199 of the Picntrl-FUB run. Besides imposed variations in GHG concentrations and aerosols, volcanic forcing was implemented through solar constant changes following Crowley (2000, Science, 289, 270-277). Also solar variability was included, with a value of 1366 W/m2 at year 1860 followed by variations that give an average over the period 1860-1998 near 1365 W/m2, which is also the value of the solar constant specified throughout the PIcntrl run. | |

| pre-industrial control experiment | PIcntrl | Run 1 | 1860 | 1 | 2200 | 12 | NA | NA | This run was initiated from another spun-up control (Picntrl-FUB, not available at PCMDI). It was initiated at year 199 of Picntrl-FUB and run for 6 years. The beginning of year 7 was then renamed 1860. PIcntrl differs from PIcntrl-FUB in that aerosol emissions were added, fixed at 1860 values, CO2 was changed from 277.28 to 286.20 ppm, CH4 changed from 722.82 to 805.60 ppb, and N2O changed from 310 to 276.69 ppb. These changes caused very little subsequent drift in the global mean surface temperature of this run (-0.0024 K per century). | |
