Sentences with phrase «circulations models against»

Scientists run general circulations models against these scenarios to project future climate conditions, including atmospheric carbon concentrations.

I would agree that unforeseen changes in ocean circulation could throw off model predictions, there are surely other wildcards too, but uncertainty like that is not your friend if you want to argue against avoiding climate change.

In the paper, according to the abstract, Scafetta compares the performance of a recently proposed empirical climate model based on astronomical harmonics against all CMIP3 available general circulation climate models (GCM) used by the IPCC (2007) and finds that the climate appears to be resonating with, or is synchronized to, a set of natural harmonics that have been associated to the solar system planetary motion.
This study is a clear shot across the bow against some previous research showing higher potential rates of oceanic sequestration, all of which used coarser resolution models that may not have accurately simulated critical variables, including particle circulation.
When the paper's four authors first tested the finished model's global - warming predictions against those of the complex computer models and against observed real - world temperature change, their simple model was closer to the measured rate of global warming than all the predictions of the complex «general - circulation» models (see the picture which heads this post).
We compare the performance of a recently proposed empirical climate model based on astronomical harmonics against all CMIP3 available general circulation climate models (GCM) used by the IPCC (2007) to interpret the 20th century global surface temperature.
An example of use of an energy balance model calibrated against general circulation models is Hegerl et al. (2006).
