Historical and Projection Simulations

The IFS-NEMO historical and projection experiment consists of two simulations: a historical simulation covering 1990–2014 and a projection simulation covering 2015–2049 (SSP3-7.0), spanning 60 years in total. The projection is a direct continuation of the historical simulation. The atmospheric component IFS used a horizontal resolution of 5 km (TCo2559 grid) while the ocean and sea ice components NEMO and SI3 used a resolution of 1/12º (<9 km, eORCA12 grid).

Both simulations were conducted in MN5, as indicated in the table.
