Eocene Climate Model Output - A CO2 Sensitivity Study

These pages contain plots of temperature, precipitation, cloud cover, and latitudinally averaged relative humidity for three scenarios from a global climate model: A 'high CO2' Eocene scenaro (CO2 = 2240ppm), a 'low CO2' Eocene scenario (CO2 = 560ppm), and a 'Modern' scenario (CO2 = 350ppm, with present-day continental configuration).

These pages contain plots of ALL atmospheric fields for two Eocene scenarios: a 'low' tilt scenario, where the Earth's tilt was changed to 18 degrees, and a 'high' tilt scenario, where the Earth's tilt is at 23.5 degrees. These experiments were run with a global atmosphere model and a 'data-ocean' model - this means that the ocean temperatures were not able to respond to the change in forcing (i.e., the change in tilt), so you will not see temperature differences in the oceans. You will, however, note significant differences on land.

The above title says it all!! These pages contain the plots you may have viewed in the first option above, along with many other variables - They are presented in the same menu format as the Obliquity Sensitivity Study.
