Description
b.PLIO_5Ma_Eoi400_f19g16_NESSC_control
0001-2048
Low resolution Pliocene run with 400 ppmv CO2 and pliocene values for: CH4 (791 ppbv), N2O (275.68 ppbv) and CFKs (f11: 12.48 pptv and f12: 0 pptv). All initial and boundary conditions are described in this paper: https://www.clim-past.net/12/663/2016/
b.PLIO_5Ma_Eoi280_f19g16_NESSC_control
2000-3000
Low resolution Pliocene run with 280 ppmv CO2 and pliocene values for: CH4 (791 ppbv), N2O (275.68 ppbv) and CFKs (f11: 12.48 pptv and f12: 0 pptv). All initial and boundary conditions are described in this paper: https://www.clim-past.net/12/663/2016/. This is a branch run that started from the 2000-01 restart files of b.PLIO_5Ma_Eoi400_f19g16_NESSC_control

All initial and boundary conditions are described in this paper: https://www.clim-past.net/12/663/2016/.

pliomip2_data_for_server_leeds
Extracted fields from our Pliocene runs Eoi280, Eoi400, Eoi560 and pre-industrial run E280 which were needed by the pliomip community and put on a server in Leeds see Eoi280, Eoi400, Eoi560 and E280 runs

Description
b.EO_30Ma_paleomag_1pic_f19g16_NESSC_control
1800-4800
Low resolution Oligocene run with 1x pre industrial concentrations (1pic) of CO2, CH4, N2O and CFKs). This is a branch run that started from the 1800-01 restart files of run b.EO_30Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control
b.EO_30Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control
0001-3000
Low resolution Oligocene run with 2x pre industrial concentrations (2pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs).
b.EO_30Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control_MOC
1800-3000
Low resolution Oligocene run with 2x pre industrial concentrations (2pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). This is a branch run that started from the 1800-01 restart files of run b.EO_30Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control. However in this MOC run we subtract 0.5 Sv of freshwater in a region above 45N in the “North Pacific” in order to try to get the MOC in another state. The same amount of freshwater is added in every ocean in the rest of the world below 45N the region to make sure the salt budget is closed. This was done for years 1800-1925. After that the run was continued with the normal freshwater forcing.

Description
b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control
0001-3000
Low resolution late Eocene (38 Ma) run with 2x pre industrial concentrations (2pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). After the run was done we found out that the vegetation was wrong. The correct run is b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control_correct_veg_final
Low resolution late Eocene (38 Ma) run with 2x pre industrial concentrations (2pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). Unfortunately the vegetation in this run is wrong again. There was a hidden statement in the code that converted a certain biome to glaciers in the tropics! Can be interesting for analyzing though. The correct run is b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_2pic_f19g16_NESSC_control_correct_veg_final
Low resolution late Eocene (38 Ma) run with 2x pre industrial concentrations (2pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). Now finally correct.
b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_4pic_f19g16_NESSC_control
0001-4000
Low resolution late Eocene (38 Ma) run with 4x pre industrial concentrations (4pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). After the run was done we found out that the vegetation was wrong. The correct run is b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_4pic_f19g16_NESSC_control_correct_veg_final
Low resolution late Eocene (38 Ma) run with 4x pre industrial concentrations (4pic) of CO2 and CH4 (and 1pic N2O and CFKs). Unfortunately the vegetation in this run is wrong again. There was a hidden statement in the code that converted a certain biome to glaciers in the tropics! Can be interesting for analyzing though. The correct run is b.EO_38Ma_paleomag_4pic_f19g16_NESSC_control _correct_veg_final
