Sentences with phrase «altering model parameterizations»

I find the following section immensely telling about climate modeling: «The bottom line is that, although there has been some narrowing of the range of climate sensitivities that emerge from realistic models [Del Genio and Wolf, 2000], models still can be made to yield a wide range of sensitivities by altering model parameterizations.

Not exact matches

As soon as a global climate model readjusts a vertical column to unphysically alter the large scale solution in order to maintain hydrostatic balance (overturning due to unrealistic heating parameterizations necessitate this adjustment), there is no mathematical theory that can justify the nature of the ensuing numerical solution.
