SRESB1 		comment = "GFDL experiment name = CM2Q-h1_SresB1_y2. PCMDI experiment name = SRESB1 (run1). Initial conditions for this experiment were taken from 1 January 2001 of the climate of the 20th century experiment named CM2Q-d2_1861-2000-AllForc_h1. Several time varying forcing agents used during the first 100 years of this CM2Q-h1_SresB1_y2 experiment were based on output of the MOZART global atmospheric chemistry climate model when driven with the SRES B1 emission scenarios. For the CM2Q-h1_SresB1_y2 experiment volcanic aerosols were zero, land surface cover types were time invariant, and solar irradiance varied seasonally based upon late 20th century averages but with no interannual variation. All forcing agents were held constant after year 2100." ;

experiment_id = '550 ppm stabilization experiment (SRES B1)'
