C4MIP Umbrella

• Benchmark against 20th century• Constrains on processes driving climate-carbon feedback• Reduced uncertainty on

Climate-carbon cycle gain Compatible emissions Climate projections

I-LAMB

• Positive feedback (larger warming), but large uncertainty in simulated atmospheric CO2.• Essentially driven by uncertainty in carbon cycle response to climate change • At that time, no proper model evaluation
