My main project has been using FAMOUS to conduct a number of transient simulations of the last glacial cycle, investigating the effects of solar insolation variations, greenhouse gases and northern hemisphere ice-sheets on climate as part of Quaternary QUEST. I like experimenting with different setups however, so I’ve also run [http://centaur.reading.ac.uk/1769/|MOC hosing] and [http://centaur.reading.ac.uk/20384 |hysteresis experiments], as well as playing around with the Southern Ocean climate forcings and some odder things, like [http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/23degrees/2011/03/what_if_the_earth_had_no_tilt.html|spinning the world backwards].
I’ve just finished using FAMOUS to conduct a number of transient simulations of the last glacial cycle, investigating the effects of solar insolation variations, greenhouse gases and northern hemisphere ice-sheets on climate as part of Quaternary QUEST. My new project involves improving the coupling between the UM and the Glimmer-CISM ice-sheet model and investigating the ice-sheet climate feedbacks though the last glacial cycle. I also like experimenting with different setups however, so I’ve also run MOC hosing and hysteresis experiments, as well as playing around with the Southern Ocean climate forcings and some odder things, like spinning the world backwards.
I’m nominally the manager of the FAMOUS project at NCAS (or that’s what Jonathan tells me!), and my work has two strands:

The development side of things has scaled back a lot since the release of FAMOUS versions XDBUA and XDKUB (see FAMOUSStandardVersions); my pages of science-related technical notes (as opposed to Annette’s properly technical notes) can now be found at ScienceWorkRobin. Further development of TRIFFID-enabled FAMOUS is probably about to spin-up again soon though, so watch this space.
