Experiment
Summary
The SRES data sets were published by the IPCC in 2000 and classified
into four different scenario families (A1, A2, B1, B2).
SRES_A2 storyline describes a very heterogeneous world
with the underlying theme of self-reliance and preservation
of local identities. It results in this scenario a continous
increasing population together with a slower economic growth
and technological change.
The atmospheric component is the massively parallel version of
the NCAR community Climate Model version 3.2 (CCM3) and the
ocean component uses the POP (Parallel Ocean Program) model
with an average resolution of 2/3 degree and near the equator
of approximately 1/2 degree.
NCAR-PCM (http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/pcm/ ).
The changes of anthropogenic emissions of CO2, CH4, N2O and
sulphur dioxide are prescribed according to the above
mentioned scenario.
