NorESM1-ME Norwegian Earth System Model 1 - medium resolution with capability to be fully emission driven Physically, the NorESM1-ME and NorESM1-M are very similar. The NorESM1-M simulates mainly physical components, whereas the NorESM1-ME is the official version where it includes all carbon cycle components in the CMIP5 runs (both prescribed atmospheric CO2 and emissions simulations) it performed. There are some minor differences such as initial condition and small perturbation in cloud parameterization, but the main physical mean state and climate variability should be largely consistent and comparable.

Aerosol Emission And Conc NorESM-aerosol emission and concentrations Description: Emissions for the sulphur cycle include emissions of sulphate aerosol precursors: sulphur dioxide and dimethylsulphide in addition to SO4 formed close to the emissions source( 2%). For sulphur dioxide and SO4, anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions are taken from Lamarque et al. (2009). Natural emissions from volcanoes are provided as a 3D field. (Dentener et al., 2006) DMS emissions have no interannual variation, and are taken from the day by day varying dataset from the year 2000 in Dentener et al. (2006). All sulphur-cycle emissions are expressed in term of mass of sulphur within the model. For black-carbon and organic-carbon aerosols from fossil-fuel and biofuel emissions, emissions are provided at the two lowest model layers, following the classification in Dentener et al. 2006 together with the source classification in Lamarque et al (2009). For biomass-burning aerosol, emissions are provided from Lamarque et al. (2009) and distributed vertically as in Dentener et al. (2006). The climatology of monthly-averaged mass-mixing ratios of secondary organic aerosol from terpene emissions are taken from Dentener et al. (2006), but scaled to the total numbers in Hoyle et al. (2007). Primary organic matter from the ocean is parameterised by using the fine mode sea-salt emissions in Dentener et al. (2006) scaled to the number given in Spracklen et al. (2008). Emissions of organic carbon aerosols are expressed in term of mass of total organic matter. Emissions from mineral dust are based on the year 2000 calculated in Dentener et al. (2006). Sea-salt aerosol emissions are computed interactively depending on modelled near-surface wind speeds and sea-surface temperatures (Struthers et al., 2011). All emission fields except DMS and dust are provided as monthly means, which are read in at the beginning of each moth. DMS and mineral dust are given as daily values, although with no interannual variation 2D-Emissions 2D-Emissions Method Method interactive other prescribed (climatology) SourceTypes SourceTypes anthropogenic bare ground sea surface vegetation ClimatologyType ClimatologyType constant ClimEmittedSpecies ClimEmittedSpecies Mineral dust; secondary organic carbon, oceanic primary organic carbon;DMS InteractivEmittedSpecies InteractivEmittedSpecies Sea-salt MethodCharacteristics MethodCharacteristics CMIP5 EmittedSpecies EmittedSpecies Monthly mean fields of fossil fuel BC, SO2 and POM 3D-Emissions 3D-Emissions Method Method prescribed (climatology) SourceTypes SourceTypes aircraft biomass burning volcanoes ClimatologyType ClimatologyType constant ClimEmittedSpecies ClimEmittedSpecies SO2 and SO4 emissions from volcanoes Concentrations Concentrations PrescribedLowerBoundary PrescribedLowerBoundary 0 PrescribedUpperBoundary PrescribedUpperBoundary 1 Trond Iversen Trond Iversen NorESM Support noresm-ncc@met.no NorESM Support Norwegian Climate Centre NCC Dentener et al.

The size distributions for modified aerosol modes, after growth, are not restricted to log-normality. Although the modified aerosol size distributions are not calculated from "first principles" in the model itself, as in a sectional model, modal size parameters (for droplet activation and subsequent indirect effects) and aerosol optical properties (for the direct effect) are found from look-up tables (by interpolation in up to 5 dimensions) of values which have been computed with a separate code which takes into account growth by condensation (including hygroscopic growth), coagulation and wet-phase chemistry/cloud processing. These tables have been made for a large array of different input values for the amount of condensation, coagulation etc (relative to a background aerosol) for the various constituents.

The Zhang-McFarlane (Zhang and McFarlane, 1995) deep convection scheme has been changed by including the effects of deep convection in the momentum equation (Richter and Rasch, 2008) and using a dilute, rather than an undilute, approximation in the plume calculation (Neale et al., 2008), see also Neale et al. (2010) and Gent et al. (2011). The shallow convection scheme is described in Neale et al. (2010). The parameterization of non-convective cloud processes is described in Rasch and Kristjansson (1998) and Zhang et al. (2003). The aerosol-cloud interactions are described in Kirkevåg et al.

same sea-ice model as the CCSM4 model, which is based on the CICE4 model from Los Alamos National Laboratory (Hunke and Lipscomb, 2008). This is a multi-category ice thickness model which solves the basic equation of Thorndike et al. (1975), to capture a sub-gridscale ice thickness distribution. NorESM1 uses 5 ice categories plus open water. The sea ice model is coupled with the atmosphere model every atmospheric radiation time-step. Surface fluxes are calculated in the sea ice model for each ice category. Coupling to the ocean is done ones a day.

This scheme uses microscopic inherent optical properties as scattering and absorption of snow, ice, melt ponds and included absorbers (black carbon and dust) to calculate macroscopic properties as albedo, transmittance, and total energy absorbed. Compared with CCSM4, NorESM1-M uses an increased snow grain size for cold snow to lower the albedo. This is done to increase summer melt of snow. Deposition of aerosols (black carbon and dust) on snow and ice are calculated interactively in the atmosphere model.
