Experiment Descriptions

Experiment: Description:
i1860cnGCP on bluefire, 0.5-degree (360x720) CLM4CN 1860 spinup w/ 1901-1920 CRUNCEP atm. data, 1860 GCP-supplied atm. CO2, and our 1860 N dep., aerosol dep., and land cover. Initial file: i1860cnGCP_ORCHIDEE.clm2.r.fromI1850CN1deg.nc, generated by interpinic w/ data from the 1850 clm4 initial file provided with the ccsm4 release
i2005cnGCP on jaguar, as i1860cnGCP but our 2005 land cover
i[1860,2005]cGCP on jaguar, as i[1860,2005]cnGCP but SUPLN&fnitr as in Bonan&Levis (2010)
i1860-2009cnGCPs1 on bluefire, as i2005cnGCP but transient GCP-supplied CO2 to 2009. Initial file: i2005cnGCP.clm2.r.0210-01-01-00000.nc
i1860-2009cnGCPs2 on bluefire, as i1860-2009cnGCPs1 to 1920, then switch to transient CRUNCEP atm. data to 2009
i1860-2009cnGCPs3 on jaguar, as i1860-2009cnGCPs2 but w/ our transient land cover and harvest data to 2005. From 2006-9 we use 2005 land cover and no harvest. Initial file: i1860cnGCP.clm2.r.0210-01-01-00000.nc
i1860-2009cGCPs[1,2,3] as i1860-2009cnGCPs[1,2,3] but SUPLN&fnitr as in Bonan&Levis (2010) and initial files i2005cGCP.clm2.r.0210-01-01-00000.nc and i1860cGCP.clm2.r.0210-01-01-00000.nc
i1860-2009c[n]dvGCPs[1,2] on jaguar, as i1860-2009c[n]GCPs[1,2] but with dynamic vegetation. Initial files: i2005cndvGCP.clm2.r.0501-01-01-00000.nc and i2005cdvGCP.clm2.r.0166-01-01-00000.nc
