| Abstract | Project: CMIP7 CMIP core common experiments i.e. the DECK (Diagnostic, Evaluation and Characterization of Klima). Produced by: UKNCSP is a strategic partnership between the Met Office and six NERC-funded research centres in the UK. This partnership consists of the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), British Geological Survey (BGS), Met Office, National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS), National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO), National Oceanography Centre (NOC) and UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH), with a mission to unite and harness UK climate science capability, advance international partnerships, and drive solutions for a resilient, net-zero world. (Using Model/Source: UKCM2-0-LL with Experiment piClim-control) UKCM2-0-LL includes dynamically evolving MetUM GA9 dynamical atmosphere with the embedded GLOMAP-mode aerosol scheme coupled to the JULES GL9 land surface and the GOSI9 configuration of the NEMO ocean and the embedded SI3 sea-ice model. Land ice is represented through JULES. The ice surface is taken to be one of the surface tile types, and all surface tiles share the same soil information for temperature and moisture in JULES. The specification of land-ice gridboxes is done through the tile fractions information. Atmospheric chemistry. UKCM2-0-LL has a very simplified treatment of aerosol chemistry using prescribed trace gas oxidants. GHGs/CFCs are prescribed from CMIP7 forcings as annual mean global constant values. UKCM2-0-LL does not include an ocean-biogeochemistry model. Experiment: Baseline for effective radiative forcing (ERF) calculations. `piControl` with prescribed sea-surface temperatures and sea-ice concentrations from a climatology of the model's `piControl` simulation. CMIP7 is a project of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), providing climate projections to understand past, present, and future climate changes. It is part of the WCRP Earth System Modelling and Observations (ESMO) Core Project, which was formed to coordinate all modelling, data, and observation activities across WCRP and its key partners.
