Change History

Below is a chronological history of changes to this site


29th Nov 2007

Please note this page in no longer being updated.


27th June 2006

Publications page added and front page updated to reflect new project co-ordinators. Keith Williams


27th September 2005

All CMOR compliant monthly slab data available to date added to the site for download. Also updated CMOR tables and diagnostic request pages to indicate that 3D meteorological fields are desirable on model levels rather than pressure levels. Keith Williams


29th November 2004

Karl Taylor's version of diagnostic tables added. News section moved to front page. Mark Webb


29th November 2004

GFDL and UIUC slab data made available. Mark Webb


29th November 2004

Publication protocol and diagnostic project submission process added.


20th July 2004

Hadley Centre Slab model (HadSM3 and HadSM4) data added (monthly and daily)

A draft document detailing the methodology for calculating the feedback partial derivatives for Sub-Project 4a has been linked to the 'Diagnostic Subprojects' page.


6th May 2004

Changes following IPCC/CFMIP climate sensitivity meeting in Exeter:

Several minor clarification changes. Also a change to 'Experimental Protocols' to remove the suggestion that undertaking the +/-2K experiment is a prerequisite for the slab experiment (although note that carrying out both experiments is still encouraged).

Sub-project 4 split into 4a and 4b as it was becoming clear that there are two main research elements. Sub-project 5 (CO2 radiative forcing) re-defined. Sub-project 7 (Relating model metrics to climate sensitivity) created as part of a general methodology developed by Break-out group 1 at the Exeter meeting.


11th March 2004

A 'Project Overview' section has been extracted from the Project Description (renamed 'Detailed CFMIP-1') to provide a short summary for visitors to the site.

'Data requirements' for +/-2K changed to indicate only daily and equilibrium mean data is required for these experiments rather than daily and monthly.

GFDL (AM2p12b) +/-2K equilibrium mean data added

'Data formats' changed to link to new documentation from PCMDI.


6th Feb 2004

Content of site updated. New 'Data Available', 'News' and 'Change history' sections added together with a more complete description of 'Data requirements'.

+/-2K monthly mean data added for HadAM3 and HadAM4
