==== Total Solar Irradiance ==== | ==== Total Solar Irradiance ==== | ||
+ | Multiple reconstructions of annual total solar irradiance are provided. These are designed to either fit smoothly with the reconstructions used in the post-1850 CMIP5 simulations (Wang, Lean and Sheely (2005)), or to explore independent estimates of the long term solar trends. Each series has an 11 year solar cycle throughout the time series (synthetic for pre-1610, based on a relationship between cycle magnitude and long-term TSI) and comes with an estimate of the spectral changes (as a function of the TSI anomaly). Each reconstruction is calibrated to the WLS modern values. | ||

- | {{:pmip3:design:lm:xsolarpag.png?500|Click to get the full-size image}} | + | Spectral reconstruction based on a flux transport model of the open and closed flux using the observed sunspot record as the main input. This comes in two versions, A) a "no-background" version that just has TSI variations similar to that seen over a solar cycle today, and B) a "with background" version with longer term trends in the solar minimum. |

- | Issues: compatability of eff. rad, zonality, height distribution with modern satellite (Sato) data. | + | Two alternative data sets are provided below. It is up to the groups to choose the Gao-Robock-Amann or the Crowley reconstruction for their last millenium simulation. |
+ | |||
+ | === The Gao-Robock-Ammann data set === | ||
+ | |||
+ | Time series of global hemispheric total stratospheric sulphate injections from volcanic eruptions for the past 1500 years as well as estimates of stratospheric loading as a function of latitude, altitude, and month are available from | ||
+ | [[http://climate.envsci.rutgers.edu/IVI2/|IVI2link]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | The data are derived from 54 ice core records, 32 from the Arctic, and 22 from Antarctica. It is based on the most comprehensive set of ice cores, an updated extraction record, updated ice core deposition to global stratospheric aerosol loading conversion factors, and an advanced spatial-temporal transport parameterization scheme (Gao et al., 2008) | ||
+ | |||
+ | The stratospheric aerosol loadings (in units of Tg) provided in the IVI2 data set may be converted into aerosol optical depth (AOD) by dividing the loadings by 150 Tg (Stothers, 1984). The AOD time series can then be used to calculate the corresponding radiative forcing (in units of Wm-2) by multiplying it by (-20) (Wigley et al., 2005). The conversion to AOD is valid for aerosols with effective radius in the visible spectral range. | ||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | === The Crowley data set === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The volcanic forcing is calculated using time series of aerosol optical depth (AOD) at 0.55μm and of the effective radius (Reff) (Crowley et al., 2008). The time resolution of the series is ten days and the data are provided at four equal area latitude bands. | ||
+ | |||
+ | AOD estimates are based on a correlation between sulphate in Antarctic ice cores and satellite data (Sato et al., 1993). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reff growth and decay is based on satellite observations of the Pinatubo eruption in 1991, with eruptions larger than that of Pinatubo (maximum is 0.15) being scaled by the theoretical calculations for very large eruptions (Pinto et al., 1989). In the model AOD is distributed between 20-86 hPa over three vertical levels, with a maximum at 50 hPa. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sensitivity experiments for the model response to the Pinatubo eruption yield an average global temperature change (0.4 K) comparable to observations. For the largest eruption of the last millennium, the 1258 AD eruption, a NH summer temperature anomaly over land of 1.2 K is found in agreement with reconstructions (Timmreck et al., 2009) | ||

+ | |||
+ | Anthropogenic land cover change is considered by applying the reconstruction of global agricultural areas and land cover (Pongratz et al., 2008). | ||
+ | |||
+ | The global maps with a spatial resolution of 0.5° and an annual timescale contain 14 vegetation types and discriminate between the agricultural categories cropland, and C3 and C4 pastures. The reconstruction merges published maps of agriculture from AD1700 to 1992 and a population-based approach to quantify agriculture from AD 800 to 1700. | ||
