- Title
Pliocene Ice Sheet Modelling Intercomparison Project (PLISMIP) - experimental design.
- Authors
Dolan, A. M.; Koenig, S. J.; Hill, D. J.; Haywood, A. M.; DeConto, R. M.
- Abstract
The article discusses the development of the Pliocene Ice Sheet Modelling Intercomparison Project (PLISMIP) for use in evaluating ice sheet stability. The researchers outline the PLISMIP experimental design and initial conditions to simulate the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets under warm mid-Pliocene conditions. The project provides model sensitivity analysis on uncertain conditions that could inform furture predictions of ice sheet and sea level changes.
