From the last interglacial to the anthropocene - modeling a complete glacial cycle. The PalMod project (https://www.palmod.de/) aims for a better understanding of the spectrum of climate variability from the last interglacial, through the last glacial to the present and at projecting the climate of the next millennia with comprehensive Earth system models under different scenarios. PalMod is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research as a Research for Sustainability Initiative since 2015 and reached the third and final phase in 2023.
