Model Simulations
Experiment: TCMYD
Famous 4.5.3 deglaciation 21k-20k run on babybluecrystal. Land-sea mask is constructed from ice-5g. Orital forcing and ghg concentrations (CO2, CH4, and N2O) are set to 21.0k values. CFC 0, O3 has 3 prescribed modern (not pre-industrial) values are 12 ppbv for the troposphere, 120 ppbv for the tropopause and 900 ppbv for the stratosphere. Freashwater fluxes consist of the modern ice calving flux. Run starts from 300 years of tcmul a 21k equilibrium run, length is 250 yrs. One parameter is perturbed in this run.
