Target period: 1500 to 1990 AD. Spin down: 50 years Initial conditions: Restart files from the so-called "Erik-the-Red" run with ECHO-G (EH4T30L19_HOPE-GL20_ETR) in 1450
Simulation period: 7 ka BP to 4,5 ka BP (Middle Holocence). The OE2-experiment is carried out using variable orbital (Berger and Loutre 1991), solar and greenhouse gas forcing. The solar
