GFDL_CM3: GFDL_CM3 temperature and forcing dataset.

In eirikmn/INLA.climate.test: Full Bayesian analysis of radiative forcing climate model

Description

This is the GFDL-CM3 temperature dataset. Also includes radiative forcing data obtained by combining the GISS-E2-R forcing data and Hansen et al. (2010) such that the 18-yr moving averages are equal. The forcing slope coefficient when assuming a 1% annual increase of CO2, which is used to estimate the TCR, is 3.0.

Usage

data(GFDL_CM3)

Format

The data is a list that contains these objects:

Year

Time index denoting the year of the observations.

Temperature

Annual global mean surface temperature.

Forcing

Annual adjusted radiative forcing.
