I don't usually look at the graphics of models any more. In the early days of cpdn, I used to look at them a lot.

Well I viewed the globe graphic from this model yesterday, and it certainly was anomalously warm. It wasn't even 75% of the way through, so I knew it would crash, as do all extremely hot models. It did indeed today with an invalid theta. Two of the other failures in this work unit also crashed with that error message.

Just thought it was interesting how warm this one got before crashing...

Here's a Hadcm 1980 - 2020 very near the end with rather extreme SO2 as if a dozen volcanos had erupted simultaneously.

I have another rather hot SO2 model:



(To see the SO2 in your model graphics press E on the keyboard. R, P and V also give interesting displays. W gives a map rather than the globe.)

I've just noticed something strange. The Hadcm models don't all start at 40-year intervals. There are snapshots above of models starting in 1920, 1940 and 1960. They must be from different sets of timeseries. Hadcm has been used for both the Geoengineering experiment and for RAPIT ocean studies.

Thanks geophi and Mo. Indeed very interesting.
