+|  Topography and coastlines  |  Modification of Hudson Bay coastlines (provided)  |  Same as PI  |
+==== Vegetation ====
+Depending on the complexity of the model used the vegetation will be either \\
+- computed by the model \\
+- prescribed to PI (some ESM may only compute vegetation phenology and carbon cycle)\\
+- prescribed to 6ka vegetation reconstructed from a combination of model output and data analyses (please use the map provided here) \\
+- Obtained from asynchronous coupling with a DVGM (Biome 4 model provided)
+==== For Earth System Models with interactive carbone cycle ====
+The simulations are forced by CO2 concentrations. Please use the same protocol as in CMIP5 to store the carbone fluxes and the variables needed for PCMIP (see list here)
+==== Insolation ====
+Note that insolation should follows PMIP requirements. Please check it carefully using the following tables ([[http://pmip2.lsce.ipsl.fr/design/tables/inso_tables_6k.shtml|6ka BP insolation tables]])
