Sulphate aerosols concentrations are externally imposed and direct and indirect aerosol forcings are considered (Quaas et al. 2004, Dufresne et al. 2005). This model participates to the CMIP3 project, the multimodel ensembles climate projections used in the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) assessment report (IPCC-AR4).\n" description_attribution: http://icmc.ipsl.fr/index.php/icmc-models/icmc-ipsl-cm4 href: https://data.globalchange.gov/model/ipsl-cm4.yaml identifier: ipsl-cm4 name: Institut Pierre Simon Laplace Climate Model version 4 project_identifier: cmip3 reference_url: http://www-pcmdi.llnl.gov/ipcc/model_documentation/IPSL-CM4.htm uri: /model/ipsl-cm4 version: ~ website: ~ - description: ~ description_attribution: ~ href: https://data.globalchange.gov/model/miroc3_2_hires.yaml identifier: miroc3_2_hires name: MIROC3.2 (Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate) project_identifier: cmip3 reference_url: http://www-pcmdi.llnl.gov/ipcc/model_documentation/MIROC3.2_hires.htm uri: /model/miroc3_2_hires version: ~ website: ~ - description: ~ description_attribution: ~ href: https://data.globalchange.gov/model/miroc3_2_medres.yaml identifier: miroc3_2_medres name: MIROC3.2 (Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate) project_identifier: cmip3 reference_url: http://www-pcmdi.llnl.gov/ipcc/model_documentation/MIROC3.2_medres.htm uri: /model/miroc3_2_medres version: ~ website: ~ - description: ~ description_attribution: ~ href: https://data.globalchange.gov/model/miroc5.yaml identifier: miroc5 name: MIROC5 (Model for Interdisciplinary Research On Climate) project_identifier: ~ reference_url: http://cmip.llnl.gov/cmip5/publications/model?exp=MIROC5 uri: /model/miroc5 version: ~ website: http://www.icesfoundation.org/Pages/ScienceItemDetails.aspx?siid=181 - description: "The new version of the global coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model (MRI-CGCM2), developed at the Meteorological Research Institute (MRI), is intended to enable examination of transient future climate changes associated with anthropogenic forcings such as the increase of greenhouse gases and sulfate aerosols. It is important for a climate model to be able to reproduce the present climate system realistically, including individual physical process components and interactions between them. For simulating the transient response of the climate system to specific influences, such as the IPCC scenario of an increase in greenhouse gases and aerosols, it is necessary for the model to simulate adequately not only the mean climate but also its variability.\n" description_attribution: http://www.mri-jma.go.jp/Dep/cl/cl4/publications/yukimoto_pap2001.pdf href: https://data.globalchange.gov/model/mri-cgcm2_3_2.yaml identifier: mri-cgcm2_3_2 name: Meteorological Research Institute Coupled Global Climate Model Version 2.3.2 project_identifier: cmip3 reference_url: http://www-pcmdi.llnl.gov/ipcc/model_documentation/MRI-GCGM2.3.2.htm uri: /model/mri-cgcm2_3_2 version: ~ website: http://www.mri-jma.go.jp/Dep/cl/cl4/publications/yukimoto_pap2001.pdf - description: "This is a joint effort to develop a DOE-sponsored parallel climate model between Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), the Naval Postgraduate School (NPG), the US Army Corps of Engineers' Cold Regions Research and Engineering Lab (CRREL) and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
