Summary: midHolocene is an experiment of the CMIP5 - Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 ( https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5 ). CMIP5 is meant to provide a framework for coordinated climate change experiments for the next five years and thus includes simulations for assessment in the AR5 as well as others that extend beyond the AR5.

midHolocene (3.4 mid-Holocene) - Version 2: Consistent with PMIP (Paleo Model Intercomparison Project) specifications. Impose Mid-Holocene (6 kyrs ago) conditions including Orbital parameters and Atmospheric concentrations of well-mixed greenhouse gasses.

Description: TQA - Technical Quality Assurance 'approved by WDCC'; SQA - Scientific Quality Assurance 'approved by author': For data quality control a number of checks were made. The model development process involves a rigorous assessment before the model is released for operational use. The simulation outputs for the runs were checked by the relevant scientists. To verify that the transformation of model outputs to CMIP5 variables files was correct, the scientists checked all variable outputs for one simulation in detail. All variable files were written using the CMOR library and used the latest available MIP tables. Subsequent QC checks on data structure and format were performed by BADC. For metadata, the raw information was collected from relevant Met Office scientists, entered into our local metadata repository and reviewed by scientists involved with the CMIP5 project. The metadata was then transferred to the CMIP5 questionnaire. A review was performed to verify that the information in the questionnaire was as recorded in the local repository.
