 +The basic principle is that we should strive to include all relevant transient forcings over this period if the functionality exists in the model, noting that conformability with the CMIP5 controls and 20th Century transient is crucial. ​

 +===== Additional information =====

 +==== Total Solar Irradiance ====
 +
 +
 +The following figure (click to get the full-size image) has been provided by [[johann.jungclaus@zmaw.de|Johann Jungclaus]] (MPI-M Hamburg)
 +
 +{{:​pmip3:​design:​lm:​xsolarpag.png?​500|Click to get the full-size image}}
 +
 +Time series of TSI (Wm-2) from 800AD to 2000. For the COSMOS (MPI-M)
 +Millennium simulations (black curve), a 11 year cycle was added for consistency over the
 +entire period.
 +
 +Notes: We will impose an 11 year cycle on pre-sunspot reconstructions for consistency of the spectrum of natural variability. Additionally,​ we will give a spectral set of irradiance changes based on modern variability observed by satellite (Lean). ​
 +
 +Candidate reconstructions:​ Krivova, Steinhilber,​ new Bard?, (TBD)
 +
 +==== Volcanic Forcings ====
 +
 +Issues: compatability of eff. rad, zonality, height distribution with modern satellite (Sato) data.
 +
 +Candidate datasets: Crowley, Ammann - differences in thresholds for significant eruptions, peak forcing etc. Need merged/​consistent fields. (Ammann)
 +
 +==== Reconstructed evolution of trace gases ====
 +
 +The evolution of CO<​sub>​2</​sub>,​ CH<​sub>​2</​sub>,​ N<​sub>​2</​sub>​O over past 2 millennia {{:​pmip3:​design:​lm:​ghg_lawdome_giss_merge_c5mip_24jul09.1-2000.txt|table}} has been provided by [[joos@climate.unibe.ch|Fortunat Joos]] (University of Bern). Methods and references are provided in the downloadable file.
 +
 +
 +==== Orbital forcing ====
 +
 +The following orbital parameters parameters should be used, if they are not internally calculated.
 +
 +Note: calculation from Berger (1978), annually varying.
 +
 +=== Precomputed table ===
 +
 +The {{:​pmip3:​design:​lm:​pmip3_lm_orbital_parameters.txt|parameters'​ table}} has been supplied by 
 +[[gschmidt@giss.nasa.gov|Gavin Schmidt]] (GISS).
 +
 +=== Linear regressions ===
 +
 +Over the period 0-2100 CE, the parameters are well approximated by the following linear regressions:​
 +
 +^  Parameter ​ ^  Linear approximation ​ ^
 +|  ECC  |  0.017475 - 0.000000382 * Year |
 +|  OBL  |  23.697 ​  - 0.000128 * Year |
 +|  PERI-180 ​ |  68.79   + 0.0170 * Year |
