Zusammenfassung |
We present a suite of new climate model experiment designs for the
Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP). This set of
experiments, named GeoMIP6 (to be consistent with the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project Phase 6), builds on the previous GeoMIP
project simulations, and has been expanded to address several
further important topics, including key uncertainties in extreme
events, the use of geoengineering as part of a portfolio of
responses to climate change, and the relatively new idea of cirrus
cloud thinning to allow more longwave radiation to escape to
space. We discuss experiment designs, as well as the rationale for
those designs, showing preliminary results from individual models
when available. We also introduce a new feature, called the GeoMIP
Testbed, which provides a platform for simulations that will be
performed with a few models and subsequently assessed to determine
whether the proposed experiment designs will be adopted as core
(Tier 1) GeoMIP experiments. This is meant to encourage various
stakeholders to propose new targeted experiments that address their
key open science questions, with the goal of making GeoMIP more
relevant to a broader set of communities. |
