General description for refD1 #59

Open charliepascoe opened 2 years ago

David Plummer's suggestion:

The refD1 experiment is a hindcast of the atmospheric state, using a prescribed evolution of sea surface temperature and sea ice from observations along with forcings for the extra-terrestrial solar flux, long-lived greenhouse gases and ozone depleting substances, stratospheric aerosols and an imposed quasi-biennial oscillation that approximate the observed variations over the historical period to the fullest extent possible.

I suggest the amendments in bold:

The refD1 experiment is a hindcast of the atmospheric state from 1960 to 2018. It uses a prescribed evolution of sea surface temperature and sea ice from observations along with historical forcings for the extra-terrestrial solar flux, long-lived greenhouse gases and ozone depleting substances, stratospheric aerosols and an imposed quasi-biennial oscillation that approximate the observed variations over the historical period to the fullest extent possible.

Previously it was:

The REF-D1 experiment is a hindcast of the atmospheric state, it uses prescribed evolution of sea surface temperature and sea ice.

Olaf Morgenstern also suggested:

The REF-D1 experiment is a hindcast of the atmospheric state; for sea surface temperatures and sea ice concentrations it follows an observational climatology.
