The Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project, Phase 2 will hold its next meeting from 14-19 September 2008 in Estes Park, Colorado, USA. The workshop will focus on the analyses by PMIP2 subprojects of the coupled atmosphere-ocean and atmosphere-ocean-vegetation model simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum and mid-Holocene, and the evaluation of these results using new and existing data syntheses. This workshop will also be the kickoff for the next phase of PMIP2 with four proposed future themes: evaluation of Earth System Models for 6 kyr BP and LGM, interglacials and warm periods, abrupt climate change, and measures of model skill in simulating paleoclimate conditions.
Abstract deadline: 1 August 2008
