Global_dot_v2.0 is recommended as the initial state for Pliocene ocean
temperature. Salinity should be derived from Levitus or an existing
modern (control) simulation. Please document what you do for the spin-
up of the simulation. Those groups who cannot alter the initial ocean
temperature should begin their simulation with a modern control state
and document the spin-up of the simulation.

The starting atmospheric conditions for experiment 2 should be derived
from the end of experiment 1 if possible.

Thanks.

PlioMIP Advisory Panel.
