TEMPERATURE TRENDS (x2 NCOM)

INITIAL CONDITION SENSITIVITY (x2 NCOM) Sufficient historical data are not available to fully initialize an ocean simulation in 1958, and the repeat cycle forcing necessarily introduces errors because of inappropriate initial conditions. Perform a 10-year branch integration for model years replacing the end of model year 120 fields with data from model year 113 (labeled as IC). CONTROL – IC RMS DIFFERENCE PROFILES (GLOBAL)
