2 HTAP Experiment Set 4: Future Emission and Climate Scenarios Two parts: FE: Future Emissions with 21 Meteorology Estimate a reasonable range of possible changes in the magnitude and spatial distribution of emissions FC: Future Meteorology with 21 Emissions Explore the potential for future shifts in transport patterns due to climate change

34 Proposed FE Experiments FE1: 22 High Emissions (~ SR1) FE2: 25 Low Emissions (~ SR1) FE3: 2% dec of all polls from FE1 (~ SR6) NA, EU, EA, SA, GL FE4: 2% dec of all polls from FE2 (~SR6) NA, EU, EA, SA, GL Temporal allocation will be proportional to 21

35 Some Issues with FE Experiments How do we capture the range of possible futures? Min-Max Approach No one model is consistently low or high Mixing models creates inconsistent spatial distributions Easily communicated and implemented Sensitivity Analyses Timing of Simulations

36 Proposed FC Experiments FC1: SR1 with 2 A2 Climate (3 years) Capture some interannual variability around SR1? FC2: SR1 with 21 A2 Climate (3 years) Capture some shift in transport patterns? FC3: 2% dec of all polls from FC1 (~ SR6) NA, EU, EA, SA, GL FC4: 2% dec of all polls from FC2 (~ SR6) NA, EU, EA, SA, GL Use native SSTs from group s coupled GCM

37 Some Issues with FC Experiments RCP results will not be ready in time Fall back to SRES: A2 or A1B Maintaining Comparibility to SR runs Future Climate & Future Emissions? Which Models? Timing? Step-wise approach?
