Description
Evaluate model against LGM (~21 ka) proxy reconstructions. Strongest constraint on ECS upper bound.
Specification
- PMIP4 protocol: expanded ice sheets, CO2 ~190 ppm
- Spatial temperature pattern comparison
- CRPS-based scoring with proxy uncertainties
Proxy datasets
Tierney et al. (2020), Osman et al. (2021), Bartlein et al. (2011)
Required simulations
lgm (≥500 years, equilibrium)
