very late, beyond the standard turnaround times for ACP. Nevertheless, we believe that this comprehensive model documentation and application is of considerable interest for future applications of MAGICC, which is why we would like to ask the editors and reviewers to accept our sincere apologies for this lateness. In the course of the two years, the described model parameterisations have been s...

There are, however, three major revisions that we have implemented: a) We followed the recommendation of reviewer 3, and split up the paper into two, a “model description and calibration” paper (Part I) and an “application” paper (Part II). b) We have updated the application examples. We noted previously the potential future use of MAGICC for forthcoming intercomparison exercises. MAGICC has in...
متن کاملEmulating coupled atmosphere-ocean and carbon cycle models with a simpler model, MAGICC6 – Part 1: Model description and calibration
Current scientific knowledge on the future response of the climate system to human-induced perturbations is comprehensively captured by various model intercomparison efforts. In the preparation of the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), intercomparisons were organized for atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) and carbon cycle mo...
متن کاملEmulating atmosphere-ocean and carbon cycle models with a simpler model, MAGICC6 – Part 2: Applications
Intercomparisons of coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) and carbon cycle models are important for galvanizing our current scientific knowledge to project future climate. Interpreting such intercomparisons faces major challenges, not least because different models have been forced with different sets of forcing agents. Here, we show how an emulation approach with MAGICC6...

Climate projections for the fourth assessment report1 (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) were based on scenarios from the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios2 (SRES) and simulations of the third phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project3 (CMIP3). Since then, a new set of four scenarios (the representative concentration pathways or RCPs) was designed4. Clima...
