Simulations for manuscript Unravelling the forcing and feedbacks contributing to Pliocene Arctic warming in EC-Earth simulations

Nine PlioMIP2 experiments were conducted to investigate the mid-Pliocene Arctic climate. These experiments considered three CO2 levels (280, 400 and 560 ppm), modern or Pliocene ice sheet conditions in Greenland and Antarctica and either prescribed or dynamic vegetation. Simulations were performed by the EC-Earth3-LR Veg climate model with a horizontal resolution of ~1.125°. The dataset contains selected output data from the simulations. Simulations were run for 1000 years. The last 200 years were used for analysis after the model reached an equilibrium as measured by global surface air temperature trend less than 0.05 K per century. 

The dataset contains Earth system model results from EC-Earth3 presented in the study by Power et al. (2023).
