Finalized TIPMIP Tier 1 ESM protocol

After many meetings and open discussions, we can finally show you the TIPMIP Tier 1 ESM protocol that has been developed and agreed on by large parts of the international Earth system modelling community and several leaders of horizon funded EU projects. The diagnostic list is based on one used in the EU projects OptimESM and TipESM and was reviewed by all our TIPMIP domain leads and their groups. The figure below shows the protocol experiments for ESMs in TIPMIP phase one. There will be ramp-up and ramp-down experiments as well as zero-emmission run off experiments.

Please be sure to sign up for the TIPMIP ESM-domain listserv in order to receive updates/clarifications to the protocol, and more information as the ESM domain participants begin running experiments in Autumn 2024. To sign up your model for TIPMIP, fill out and submit the form here.
