ABSTRACT
The Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM) is the Norwegian model contribution to the ongoing CMIP5. The ocean component is based on MICOM and will be described in this talk. Special emphasis will be put on the representation of the Southern Ocean, tropical Pacific, and the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. Results from a pre-industrial spinup/control experiment will be shown.
