see: ​http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~jonathan/FAFMIP/ for a full description of the experimental design

Using IPSL model, it is planned to perform the three experiments from Tier1 for a total of 210 years of simulations. The main difficulty is to have 3D trends in ocean as output of the simulations. NEMO will be hopefully equipped with a key to allow such a requirement.

Solar forcing

Person in charge: Marion Marchand, Rong-Ming Hu, Olivier Boucher

The solar forcing files are located in the directory '/workgpfs/rech/dzt/rdzt311/SolarFlux_CMIP6' on IDRIS supercomputer. The time period of data file is from 1 January 1850 to 31 December 2299. We reprocessed the monthly spectral solar forcing data into the data files with 2, 4 and 6 wave bands. You can use the data files with 2 wave bands for current LMDZ model. We also added the variables of solar irradiance anormaly and fraction for the model inputs in a particular wave band.
