Table 7 : Sea surface temperature and sea-ice.

The table lists the prescribed sea surface temperature and sea-ice used for the " fix " experiments.

For the " cal " experiments : there are two methods used to compute the zonal equator-to-pole (meridional) oceanic heat transport (OHT) in the PMIP simulations :

a) Inferring the OHT and associated transport from a present day experiment with prescribed SSTs.

b) Inferring OHT from observed estimates (difference between satellite radiation measurements and calculated atmospheric transports).

[AMIP] = For Sea Surface Temperature : Reynold's data (1979-1988) - 10 years mean.

For Sea-ice : US Navy and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Ice Joint Center data for 79-88

AlMob = Alexander and Mobley (1976)

Shea = Shea et al. (1992)

NESDIS = NOAA Atlas NESDIS 4, World Ocean Atlas 1994, Volume 4: Temperature, Washington, D.C., U.S. Dept.of Commerce, S.Levitus, T.P.Boyer.

MOHSST3 = Meteorological Office Observational Climatology ( 1951-1980)

[PMIP] = CLIMAP (21k) - CLIMAP (0k) + SST (used for control run)

CLIMAP(21k) = CLIMAP Last Glacial Maximum data (1981)

CLIMAP(0k) = CLIMAP present data (1981)
