**Initialisation ** Start from CMIP5 control simulation. Ensemble member 1: NAER1850CNOC_f19_g16_05, year 700. 2: NAER1850CNOC_f19_g16_06, year 730, 3: NAER1850CNOC_f19_g16_06, year 760

Resolution: f19_g16= 1.9×2.5 degree atmosphere/land. Dipolar ocean/ice grid, ~ 1 degree

Emission year(s): Pre-industrial (1850 emissions)

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: **

Tuning parameters which are changed relative to the host model NorESM-CMIP5-branch:

rhminl: 0.9005 lower RH threshold for formation of low stratiform clouds (0.91 in CAM4)
