Permafrost Experiments

Disclaimer: These model results are from preliminary simulations of the community climate system model and should not be cited or distributed.

Simulation Descriptions
  • Control - control version of CLM (LMWG Hyd except where noted)
  • qc - + fix to qcharge calculations
  • Soilcarb - same as control except with new soil carbon dataset and parameterization
  • fd - for AMIP runs, with freeze dry clouds
  • Deep soil - same as control except with # soil levels extended to 20 (15m depth)
  • Soilcarb_fd - same as Soilcarb except with freeze dry cloud
  • Soilcarb_qc_fd - same as soilcarb_fd except with qcharge fix
  • Control SOM - Slab ocean 1%CO2 run, CO2 ramp starts in year 2000
  • Deep soil SOM - Deep soil slab ocean run

    • Offline CLM Simulations
