 +==== Freshwater forcing ==== 
 +
 +Two different types of freshwater forcing: the background melt-flux from the Laurentide Icesheet, and the Lake Agassiz drainage. The former supposedly prevented Labrador Sea deep convection (see Hillaire-Marcel et al. 2006 GRL)
 +
 +**Proposed Background Early Holocene melt-water forcing** (mandatory)
 +| Flux      | 0.05 Sv over 500 years |
 +| Location ​ | Either part or all of the Labrador Sea (up to the individual modeling groups, as long as it is not added outside the Labrador Sea)|
 +
 +**Proposed Lake Agassiz drainage** (mandatory): ​
 +| Flux       | 2.5 Sv over 1 year   |
 +| Location ​ | Either part or all of the Labrador Sea (up to the individual modeling groups, as long as it is not added outside the Labrador Sea)|
 +| Ensemble ​ | this experiment should be completed at least three times, beginning at different years in the control simulation|
 +| Duration ​ | experiment should be integrated until the AMOC recovers, except in the case of unrealistically long (i.e., multicentury) recoveries|

-There are still questions concerning the possibility to have a 6ka reconstructed vegetation from a combination of model output and data analyses that could be used for sensitivity experiments. Please tell if you are interested by such a map and what would be the best variables (pft?) that should be provided (see comment from B. Otto-Bliesner in the discussion pannel).  ​
