Once the initial conditions are specified, solution of the equations gives all the subsequent behaviour of the system. (faith.org.uk)
None of these estimates however take into account how likely any of these models are to capture the true behaviour of the system, and that should really be a part of any assessment. (realclimate.org)
This then leads to insights about the dynamic behaviour of a system, especially in terms of stocks and flows, and positive and negative feedback loops. (realclimate.org)
