GFDL_R30_SRES_B2

The SRES data sets were published by the IPCC in 2000 and classified

into four different scenario families (A1, A2, B1, B2).

SRES_B2 storyline describes a world in which the emphasis is on

local solutions to economic, social and enviromental sustainability.

The global population is increasing at a lower rate than A2. It has

an intermediate level of economic development and a less rapid and

more diverse technological change than in A1 and B1.

The atmospheric component solves the primitive equations using

a spectral transform method, GFDL_R30 means a rhomboidal 30

truncation and the ocean component solves the primitive equation

of motion using the Boussinesq, rigid-lid and hydrostatic

approximation and based on GFDL Modular Ocean Model version 1.


The changes of anthropogenic emissions of CO2, CH4, N2O and sulphur

dioxide are prescribed according to the above mentioned scenario.
