One partner will build all the climate models for the HadGEM2-ES GCM and the other will build all of the models for CCSM4. We are projecting to the year 2070.
Future Climate | HadGEM2-ES | CCSM4 |
---|---|---|
RCP 2.6 | GCM: HE, RCP: 2.6, year: 2070 | GCM: CC, RCP: 2.6, year: 2070 |
RCP 6.0 | GCM: HE, RCP: 6, year: 2070 | GCM: CC, RCP: 6, year: 2070 |
RCP 8.5 | GCM: HE, RCP: 8.5, year: 2070 | GCM: CC, RCP: 8.5, year: 2070 |
If you finish up projecting to the future climate and making response curves, you can work on projecting the models back in time. You can download the data from the WorldClim website here. Note that there is no data from the HadGEM2-ES GCM for the Last Glacial Maximum.
Past Climate | HadGEM2-ES | CCSM4 |
---|---|---|
Mid-Holocene | GCM: HE, year: Mid-Holocene | GCM: CC, year: Mid-Holocene |
Last Glacial Maximum | --- | GCM: CC, year: Last Glacial Maximum |
