 For the mid-Holocene, our proposed experimental set-up for PMIP-CMIP6 is unchanged compared to the PMIP3-CMIP5 set-up:
-The main forcing is the insolation, and the astronomical parameters must be set to:
+The main forcing is the ** insolation **, and the astronomical parameters must be set to:
 **eccentricity** = 0.018682
 **obliquity** = 24.105°
 **perihelion-180°** = 0.87°

 **Concentration of atmospheric trace gases:**

+We invite the modelling groups planning to run simulations with an interactive dust cycle to comment on the most appropriate methodology for their model, in particular as to their ability to use a interactive vegetation description.
