HadCM3 control run generated for the QUMP (Quantifying Uncertainty in Model Predictions) Project
Abstract
The Control Run uses fixed forcing representative of late nineteenth century atmospheric conditions. This run is part of a 17 element control ensemble produced as part of the Hadley Centre QUMP investigation.
The Control Run contained in this dataset is part of the 2nd QUMP (Quantifying Uncertainty in Model Predictions) Fully Coupled Transient Ensemble. It uses fixed forcing representative of late nineteenth century atmospheric conditions. The HadCM3 model was used by the Hadley Centre to provide input for the IPCC Third Assessment Report.
Data members run for this experiment: aenwp
Boundary conditions: Fixed forcing representative of late nineteenth century atmospheric conditions as defined in Johns et al. (2003).

Process overview
Title | Hadley Centre Hadley Centre Coupled Model Version 3 |
Abstract | The Hadley Centre Hadley Centre Coupled Model Version 3 was developed from the earlier HadCM2 model in the period 1997-2000. Various improvements were applied to the 19 level atmosphere model and the 20 level ocean model and as a result the model requires no artificial flux adjustments to prevent excessive climate drift. The atmosphere and ocean exchange information once per day, heat and water fluxes being conserved exactly. The main differences from the previous HadCM2 model are a significantly more sophisticated radiation scheme; the inclusion of the direct impact of convection on momentum; and the inclusion of a new land surface scheme that includes a better representation of evaporation, freezing and melting of soil moisture. It improved on the resolution available from previous Hadley Centre models and included support for interactive couplings between the atmosphere and ocean and the biosphere, atmospheric chemistry, the sulphur cycle and atmospheric aerosols. The HadCM3 model was used by the Hadley Centre to provide input for the IPCC Third Assessment Report. |
