Summary: | Description Transient simulations of the last glacial period performed with two Earth System models of intermediate complexity (LOVECLIM and the UVic ESM). The impact of North Atlantic meltwater input, and Southern Ocean convection on climate and carbon cycle are studied. Methodology Transient simulations of the last glacial period performed with two Earth System models of intermediate complexity (LOVECLIM and the UVic ESM). The models are forced by changes in insolation (Berger, 1978), and NH ice-sheet topography, extent and albedo (Abe-Ouchi et al., 2007). Meltwater input in the North Atlantic are added to simulate the millennial-scale variability. Atmospheric CO2 is prognostic.
