control for experiments 3-7 and for some models
also the control for experiments 8-9. There will be no
anthropogenic or natural forcing in this control. The control
experiment should be long enough to extend to the furthest point in
time reached by the end of the perturbation experiments (which
presumably branch from it). Thus the control should allow us to
subtract any residual, unforced drift from all perturbation simulations.

for most models this experiment is not needed,
but for some it is the control for experiments 8-9. There will be
no natural forcing and anthropogenic influences will be set at
present-day level. The control experiment should be long enough
to extend to the furthest point in time reached by the end of the
perturbation experiments (which branch from it). Thus the control
should allow us to subtract any residual, unforced drift from the
perturbation simulations.

should initialize from a point early enough in
the pre-industrial control run to ensure that the end of all the
perturbed runs branching from the end of this 20C3M run end before the
end of the control. This will enable us to subtract any residual
drift in the control from all runs that will be compared to it.
