Abstract Project: CMIP7

Future scenario experiments. Exploration of the future climate under a (selected) range of possible boundary conditions. In CMIP7, the priority tier for experiments is conditional on whether you are doing emissions- or concentration-driven simulations. There is no way to express this in the CVs (nor time to implement something to handle this conditionality). This means that, for your particular situation, some experiments may be at a lower tier than is listed in the CVs. For example, the `vl` scenario is tier 1 for concentration-driven models and tier 2 for emissions-driven models. However, in the CVs, we have used the highest priority tier (across all the possible conditionalities). Hence `vl` is listed as tier 1 in the CVs (even though it is actually tier 2 for emissions-driven models).For details, please see the full description in the ScenarioMIP description papers.

CanESM6-0-MR is a fully coupled ESM developed by CCCma with a nominal resolution of 1 degree. It includes the Canadian Atmospheric Model version 6 (CanAM6), based on the GEM dynamical core and Yin Yang grids, with the Canadian Land Surface Scheme including Biogeochemical Cycles (CLASSICv1.5) embedded. The ocean is represented via an adapted version of the NEMO4.2.2 ocean model with the Canadian Model of Ocean Carbon (CMOC) and the NEMO Sea Ice Engine (SI3) embedded on the eORCA1 grid. The model components are coupled together based on a bespoke Canadian Coupler (CanCPL), built on the ESMF infrastructure. This version of the model does not simulate prognostic atmospheric-chemistry. Land ice is specified and static.

Experiment: CMIP7 ScenarioMIP High emission scenario - A scenario with emissions as high as judged to be plausible, based on assuming developments that include a rollback of current mitigation policies. This scenario is expected to result in forcings below SSP5-8.5. Run with prescribed carbon dioxide emissions (for prescribed carbon dioxide concentrations, see `scen7-h`).

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. Further details can be found here and in the CMIP7 Guidance pages. Parties using CMIP data should ensure they have read the WCRP CMIP (2026) CMIP Data Disclaimer.
