Remove preindustrial CO2 parameter #48
Comments
It is a fairly well known historical quantity. There is an error bar associated with it. There are slightly different interpretations of what this should be. |
@ssmithClimate what are your thoughts on having this removed in the tunable HectorUI parameters? |
The other thing is, this doesn't matter (at least, not very much). Hector's carbon dynamics are ultimately determined by the total amount of C in the earth system and the first-order relationships between them, e.g. how much the land responds to CO2 enrichment. If you change the preindustrial CO2 value the model is going to re-equilibrate during the historical transient period anyway. |
...I just mean, it can be in hectorui of course, but I think it'll have a very small effect on model runs. |
Agree that that's not a critical parameter for hectorUI. (Sorry I didn't see the context...) |
From @bpbond: "I'm not sure it makes sense to let users adjust this...? It's a very precisely known historical quantity."
Variable in Hector:
pco2
