IPCC-DDC_CSIRO_SRES_A2: 140 YEARS MONTHLY MEANS Commenwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation Australia

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

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

SRES_A2 storyline describes a very heterogeneous world

with the underlying theme of self-reliance and preservation

of local identities. It results in this scenario a continous

increasing population together with a slower economic growth

and technological change.

The Mark 2 CSIRO coupled global climate model consists of the

atmospheric component which has 9 vertical levels with a R21

horizontal resolution and the ocean component which was based

on the GFDL code.

M2CSIRO (http://www.cmar.csiro.au/e-print/open/hennessy_1998a.html#ccm ).

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

sulphur dioxide are prescribed according to the above

mentioned scenario.
