| Zusammenfassung |
| A set of coupled ocean-atmosphere simulations using state of the art climate
models is now available for the Last Glacial Maximum and the Mid-Holocene
through the second phase of the Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison
Project (PMIP2). This study presents the large-scale features of the
simulated climates and compares the new model results to those of the
atmospheric models from the first phase of the PMIP, for which sea surface
temperature was prescribed or computed using simple slab ocean formulations.
We consider the large-scale features of the climate change, pointing out
some of the major differences between the different sets of experiments. We
show in particular that systematic differences between PMIP1 and PMIP2
simulations are due to the interactive ocean, such as the amplification of
the African monsoon at the Mid-Holocene or the change in precipitation in
mid-latitudes at the LGM. Also the PMIP2 simulations are in general in
better agreement with data than PMIP1 simulations. |
