Simulations of HAPPI (Half a degree Additional warming, Prognosis and Projected Impacts) Tier-1 experiments based on the ECHAM6.3 atmospheric model of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M)
Project: HAPPI-MIP (international HAPPI initiative) - The data of this project belong to the data protocol (http://www.happimip.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/HAPPI_request_diagnostics_final.pdf) of HAPPI-MIP (Half a degree Additional warming, Prognosis and Projected Impacts - Model Intercomparison Project; http://www.happimip.org/). The data format is netCDF as time series per variable on the model native grid spatial resolution and is very similar to the CMIP5 standard. The international HAPPI-MIP initiative has been created in response to the announced intend of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) to publish a special report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways, in the context of strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development, and efforts to eradicate poverty (SR1.5). The experimental design is described in detail in https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-10-571-2017 . Each CERA experiment of this project contains the results based on a single global atmospheric model or of a single regional model. Summary: Global HAPPI-MIP protocol data based on the ECHAM6.3-03 atmospheric model from MPI-M (Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Hamburg). For more information on the atmospheric model please refer to https://doi.org/10.1002/jame.20015 . This CERA experiment includes an AMIP experiment from 1959-2015 (HAMXELAHs1v11), an AMIP experiment from 2006-2015 (HAMXELAHs1v10), an AMIP-like experiment from 2106-2115 (HAMXELP15m1v10) representing a 1.5°C warmer climate than during preindustrial conditions (1861-1880) and an AMIP-like experiment from 2106-2115 (HAMXELP20m1v10) representing a 2.0°C warmer climate than during preindustrial conditions.
