English Abstract:
We will discuss opportunities and progress in constraining future projections using the paleo-climate simulations performed for both PMIP3 and additional paleo-climate experiments. Specifically, we will describe robust processes and features in the NASA GISS-E2 simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum, Early and Mid-Holocene as well as a suite of experiments for the Last Millennium, in comparison with the future simulations under multiple RCP scenarios.
