Description:

Abstract:: LMCELMD4: The LMD model derives from an earlier version developed for climate studies (cf. Sadourny and Laval 1984) . Subsequent modifications principally include changes in the representation of radiation and horizontal diffusion, Inclusion of parameterizations of gravity-wave drag and prognostic cloud formation and cloud water pronostic equation (Le Treut 1994 and Ramstein 1998). LMCELMD5: The LMD model derives from an earlier version developed for climate studies (cf. Sadourny and Laval 1984) . Subsequent modifications principally include changes in the representation of radiation and horizontal diffusion, and inclusion of parameterizations of gravity-wave drag and prognostic cloud formation. For the PMIP, LMCELMD4 and LMCELMD5 consists of runs 21, 6 and 0.
