 +The ice sheet provided for PMIP3/CMIP5 LGM experiments is a blended product obtained by averaging three different ice sheets:
 +  * ICE6G provided by Dick Peltier
 +  * MOCA provided by Lev Tarasov
 +  * ANU provided by Kurt Lambeck
 +
 +A short description and references for the different ice sheets is provided under the link below: ​
 +[[pmip3:​design:​pi:​final:​icesheet|LGM icesheet description]]

 +This solution was proposed by PMIP bureau in light of a community checking. Given the uncertainties that still exist on the reconstruction of the ice-sheet, resulting from uncertainties in datation for the data used for global or regional constraints,​ climate intput from ice core temperature reconstructions or climate model simulations,​ etc... it sounds reasonable to consider that the average is a best estimate of the LGM ice-sheet.//​
  
 Several PMIP participants were in favour of using a new ice-sheet reconstruction for PMIP3/CMIP5 that better matches the geomorphologic and glaciological constraints than the ICE-5G reconstruction used in PMIP2. ​ Several PMIP participants were in favour of using a new ice-sheet reconstruction for PMIP3/CMIP5 that better matches the geomorphologic and glaciological constraints than the ICE-5G reconstruction used in PMIP2. ​
