Simulations by CESM Version

Multi-version CESM Projects

• PlioMIP1 simulations with CCSM4 and CESM1.2
• PlioMIP2 mid-Pliocene (3.2Ma) simulations with CESM2 (CMIP6/PMIP4 contribution) and CESM1.2.

CESM2

• CESM2 Last Glacial Maximum 
• CESM2-CISM2 Transient Last Interglacial: coupled evolution of climate and interactive dynamic Greenland Ice Sheet
• CESM2 CMIP6/PMIP4 Tier 1 midHolocene and lig127k simulations
• Paleo-calibrated CESM2 LGM simulation (TBA)

CESM1 (CAM5)

• CESM1.1-CAM5 Last Millennium Ensemble
• CESM1.1 Last Millennium Ensemble additions: Sensitivity to eruption season for Tambora and Samalas
• CESM1.1 Last Millennium Ensemble extensions: Response to a large volcanic eruption in a future warming world 
• CESM1.2 Experiments with idealized forcings (obliquity, precession, CO₂, and ice sheets)
• CESM1.2 Pennsylvanian (300Ma) Simulations
• iCESM1.3 Last Glacial Maximum
