“…The ocean model MPIOM [Marsland et al, 2003], including thermal dynamics that is formulated using viscous-plastic rheology, has a mean resolution of GR30 (3°× 1.8°) in the horizontal, with 40 uneven vertical layers. The climate model has already been used to simulate the last millennium [Jungclaus et al, 2010], the Holocene, the Last Glacial Maximum, and the Miocene warm climate [Knorr et al, 2011;Wei and Lohmann, 2012;Lohmann et al, 2013;Gong et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2014;Knorr and Lohmann, 2014;Stärz et al, 2016;Stein et al, 2016].…”
