Not exact matches

I confess that I have become somewhat blasé about the range of exciting — I think revolutionary is probably more accurate — technologies that we are rolling out today: our work in genomics and its translation into varieties that are reaching poor farmers today; our innovative integration of long — term and multilocation trials with crop models and modern IT and communications technology to reach farmers in ways we never even imagined five years ago; our vision to create a C4 rice and see to it that Golden Rice reaches poor and hungry children; maintaining productivity gains in the face of dynamic pests and pathogens; understanding the nature of the rice grain and what makes for good quality; our many efforts to change the way rice is grown to meet the challenges of changing rural economies, changing societies, and a changing climate; and, our extraordinary array of partnerships that has placed us at the forefront of the CGIAR change process through the Global Rice Science Partnership.

Without that theory, it is difficult to construct more accurate parameterizations [or models] of clouds that go into global climate models,» Romps said.

Given that it is all eventually going to come back to the issue of the gradual gain we've been seeing in ocean heat content over many decades, the most accurate thing we can say is that 2014's warmth is very consistent with the general accumulation of energy in Earth's climate system caused by increasing GH gases and is well accounted for dynamically in global climate models.

Computers don» t have the capacity, and we don» t have the data or understanding, to create climate models that can recreate global climate or make accurate forecasts.

Does the downscaling (in this case Type 4 downscaling) provide a more accurate result of climate variables requested by the impacts communities than can be achieved by interpolating the global parent model prediction to the finer grid and landscape?

The intent of downscaling is to achieve accurate, higher spatial resolution of weather and other components of the climate system than is achievable with the coarser spatial resolution global model.

For a method for that, may I encourage you to look at Roy Spencer's recent model on thermal diffusion in the ocean: More Evidence that Global Warming is a False Alarm: A Model Simulation of the last 40 Years of Deep Ocean Warming June 25th, 2011 See especially his Figure Forcing Feedback Diffusion Model Explains Weak Warming in 0 - 700 m layer as Consistent with Low Climate Sensitivity His model appears to be more accurate than the IPmodel on thermal diffusion in the ocean: More Evidence that Global Warming is a False Alarm: A Model Simulation of the last 40 Years of Deep Ocean Warming June 25th, 2011 See especially his Figure Forcing Feedback Diffusion Model Explains Weak Warming in 0 - 700 m layer as Consistent with Low Climate Sensitivity His model appears to be more accurate than the IPModel Simulation of the last 40 Years of Deep Ocean Warming June 25th, 2011 See especially his Figure Forcing Feedback Diffusion Model Explains Weak Warming in 0 - 700 m layer as Consistent with Low Climate Sensitivity His model appears to be more accurate than the IPModel Explains Weak Warming in 0 - 700 m layer as Consistent with Low Climate Sensitivity His model appears to be more accurate than the IPmodel appears to be more accurate than the IPCC's.

They include James Hansen, who created one of the earliest global climate models in the 1980s, which has turned out to be remarkably accurate (Figure 2).

A new study by meteorologists at the University of Utah shows that current climate models are quite accurate and can be valuable tools for those seeking solutions on reversing global warming trends.

«The authors write that North Pacific Decadal Variability (NPDV) «is a key component in predictability studies of both regional and global climate change,»... they emphasize that given the links between both the PDO and the NPGO with global climate, the accurate characterization and the degree of predictability of these two modes in coupled climate models is an important «open question in climate dynamics» that needs to be addressed... report that model - derived «temporal and spatial statistics of the North Pacific Ocean modes exhibit significant discrepancies from observations in their twentieth - century climate... conclude that «for implications on future climate change, the coupled climate models show no consensus on projected future changes in frequency of either the first or second leading pattern of North Pacific SST anomalies,» and they say that «the lack of a consensus in changes in either mode also affects confidence in projected changes in the overlying atmospheric circulation.»»

If we can't get accurate radiosonde measurements after 50 years and 28 million measurements, then why on Earth would anyone assume that we can create 3D working global climate models that are more accurate?

NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) has a long history in climate studies, which led to the development of one of the most accurate and complete models of Earth's global climate, the General Circulation Model (GCM).

Any accurate climate model must succeed in a good description of the basin, both in its natural state and in states perturbed by regional and global human activities.

This would in turn allow experts to developer better climate models to help analyze and understand the ocean and the atmosphere, which could lead to more accurate predictions on the effects of the global climate change.

In case you missed it, let me repeat this point — model projections made 10 - 15 years ago are being verified today, proving that the models are quite accurate predictors of global climate.

Although the recent spike in global temperatures from the current El Niño may provide some AGW alarmist bragging rights («see, that clock is accurate»), it is highly probable the recent 6 - month surge is a very temporary spike, entirely due to the natural ENSO phenomenon that climate models are incapable of predicting.

Combine the new and improved data, measured correlation between the old models and the new data, and improved climate models that, when properly vetted and compared with historical climate reconstructions, and you end up with a very compelling global heating theory that has convinced 620 authors from 42 countries that both the theory and the predictions are accurate.
