AeroCom working group Aerosol-climate simulations

Participants

Schulz, Ming, Stier, Balkanski, Takemura, Rotstayn, Seland, Iversen, Kirkevag

Goals

Establish a reference set of coupled aerosol-(chemistry)-climat simulations 1860-2050

Provide comparable set of aerosol-climate transient scenario experiments

Model requirements

Documented emission scenario (eventually AeroCom-GEIA derived) / ocean, atmosphere and hydrology feedbacks present / natural&anthrop. aerosol /at least monthly variation of aerosol fields / analysis of one year of radiative forcing every 20 years / direct and indirect aerosol effects parameterised / Volcanic forcing present, SRES A2 for LLGHG / Stabilisation of climate achieved for 1860, 2000, 2050 emissions (documented reference)/ no flux adjustment (?) / Control with LLGHG evolution and preindustrial aerosol
