Aerosol Diagnostic Plots

Model version I (left) vs. Model version II (right)

Presenting annual means (from monthly climatological means) from featureCESM2-OsloDevelopment simulations with the following casenames:

ModI = NF2000ctrlSS
ModII = NF2000expSS

Both ModI and ModII are with
MG2, CLM5, online DMS/POM, CMIP6 emissions and PD oxidants for PI, using the Neu gas deposition scheme.

ModI is with default sea-salt emissions, ModII with inceased exponent (3.41 -> 3.74) in the U10 dependence.

ModI PD: CAM6-Oslo, ca. (running averages) 2000 emissions (PD oxidants), 2 years spin-up, showing years 3-6
ModI PI:
ModII PD: CAM6-Oslo, ca. (running averages) 2000 emissions (PD oxidants), 2 month spin-up, showing year 3-6
ModII PI:
