Revision Number: 405, https://svn.met.no/NorESM/noresm/branches/projectEXPECT_cmip5-r143-1
Production computer used: Cray XT3 in Bergen (hexagon)
Production date: Autumn 2015
Ensemble runs: Yes
Storage locations: NorStore (/projects/NS9033K/alfgr/EXPECT/NRCP85BPRPEX_MPI_20100_LWF1_X), where X = ensemble member, X=2,4,5 for this particular set-up, An additional member: NRCP85BPRPEX_MPI_20100_LWF1 also exists, but has missing data (high resolution time data are missing)
Storage space: 1.5 Tb at NorStore (for each ensemble member)
Projects: EXPECT

Papers in preparation:
Simulation name(s): NRCP85BPRPEX_MPI_20100_LWF1
Compset name used: NRCP85BPRPEX
Model type: Fully coupled
Type of run: hybrid
Simulation period: 96 years (2005-2100)
Initialisation Start from N20TRAERCNOCBPRP_EXPECT01 historical simulation in EXPECT project.
Resolution: f19_g16= 1.9×2.5 degree atmosphere/land. Dipolar ocean/ice grid, ~ 1 degree
Emission year(s): RCP8.5
Greenhouse gases: Interactive CO2
Emission inventories N/A
Frequency for output: Monthly and selected daily
Active/changing forcing agents: Greenhouse gases: Direct and indirect (1. & 2.) effects of SO4, POM and BC.
Special considerations: Ensemble members are created through small perturbations (~1.e-4) degrees in initial temperature in the same historical run. We did not have several historical runs when the members were created, so they only have 15 years to diverge before CE starts in 2020.
There were a lot of confusion about LW effect of the ECHAM aerosols before doing this run. The files in noresm/models/atm/cam/tools/StratEchamReader2 in the code repository must be copied to SourceMods/src.cam before doing the runs. The name of the input files are hardcoded in MPIaerosols.F90
