ETH-PMOD (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich and the Physical-Meteorology Observatory Davos) Data, Part of the Chemistry-Climate Model Initiative (CCMI-1) Project Database

Data from the ETH-PMOD (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich and the Physical-Meteorology Observatory Davos) SOCOL3 model, part of the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC)/Stratosphere-troposphere Processes and their Role in Climate (SPARC) Chemistry-Climate Model Initiative (CCMI-1). CCMI-1 is a global chemistry climate model intercomparison project, coordinated by the University of Reading on behalf of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP). The dataset includes data for the following CCMI-1 experiments: Reference experiments: ref-C1 and ref-C2. Sensitivity experiments: senC2fCH4, senC2CH4rcp85, senC2fEmis, senC2fN2O, senC2rcp26, senC2rcp45, senC2rcp85. ref-C1: Using state-of-knowledge historic forcings and observed sea surface conditions, the models simulate the recent past (1960–2010). ref-C2: Simulations spanning the period 1960–2100. The experiments follow the WMO (2011) A1 baseline scenario for ozone depleting substances and the RCP 6.0 (Meinshausen et al., 2011) for other greenhouse gases (GHGs), tropospheric ozone (O3) precursors, and aerosol and aerosol precursor emissions. senC2CH4rcp85: Similar to ref-C2 but the methane surface-mixing ratio follows the RCP 8.5 scenario (Meinshausen et al., 2011), all other GHGs and forcings follow RCP 6.0. senC2fCH4: Similar to ref-C2 but the methane surface-mixing ratio is fixed to its 1960 value. senC2fEmis: Similar to ref-C2 but with surface and aircraft emissions fixed to their respective 1960 levels. senC2fN2O: Similar to ref-C2 but the nitrous oxide surface-mixing ratio is fixed to its 1960 value. senC2rcp26: The same as ref-C2, but with the GHG scenario changed to RCP 2.6 (Meinshausen et al., 2011). senC2rcp45: The same as ref-C2, but with the GHG scenario changed to RCP 4.5 (Meinshausen et al., 2011). senC2rcp85: The same as ref-C2, but with the GHG scenario changed to RCP 8.5 (Meinshausen et al., 2011).
