Simulation of long-term anthropogenic climate change with the MPI/UW earth system model. The model was driven with emissions corresponding to the SRES B1 scenario with an exponential decay with a time-constant of 150 years after 2100. This simulation has been performed within the DEKLIM-CLIMCYC project. The MPI/UW earthsystem model is build up by the coupled atmosphere (ECHAM3.6, T21)- ocean (LSG2, 64x64) - vegetation (LPJ) - marine biogeochemistry (HAMOCC 3) and interactive ice sheet (SICOPOLIS) models. The latter two models encompass the complete carbon cycle permitting a predictive atmospheric pCO2 simulation. The simulation was run on a NEC-SX6 (hurrikan). A synchronous coupling scheme was applied.
