Data.UVic.par {stilt}

UVic ESCM climate model ensemble parameter settings

Description

Parameter settings for the UVic ESCM climate model ensemble output in Data.UVic.model

Usage

data(Data.UVic.par)

Format

The format is a list containing three variables

$par

Parameter settings for the temperature output from the UVic ESCM ensemble in Data.UVic.model. [1:3, 1:250] matrix. [row, col] = [parameter number, run number]. The columns of $par correspond to columns of $out in Data.UVic.model.

$parnames

Parameter names for rows of $par

$parunits

Parameter units for rows of $par

Details

The ensemble was run by Roman Olson at Penn State University. The ensemble varies key parameters that affect decadal- and century-scale climate response to external climate forcings: vertical ocean diffusivity, climate sensitivity, and anthropogenic sulfate aerosol scaling factor.
