Pliocene_coupled
This is a continuation of tbpsd but on quest. It is the Pliocene Coupled Model at high resolution, started from end of tbpsd. This is run on quest and should technically be scientifcally identical to the xatsb and xbmea and xbmsa and xbooa and tbpsd simulations, but it is based on the new HadCM3-MOSES1 configuarion, so may be more similar to xatsb.
