After several years of development, the French IPSL1 and
CNRM2-CERFACS3 modelling groups are presenting to
the international scientific community the climate
simulations they have prepared as part of the 5th Phase of the
Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5).
The following set of manuscripts provides a detailed
description and evaluation of the coupled models and of
their individual components. It also presents an analysis of
the simulations in terms of internal climate variability,
climate response to natural and anthropogenic forcings,
physical, chemical and biogeochemical feedbacks, and
regional studies.
This work benefitted tremendously from the national
INSU/LEFE MissTerre project (P.I. P. Braconnot and
S. Planton) which aims at strengthening collaborations
among the French research teams involved in climate
modeling. Several workshops and substantial data and
expertise exchanges has been possible thanks to this
project. This joint Special Issue analyzing simulations
from the two models is one of the main results of this
collaboration.
