In a paper published last year Meehl et al (2011) looked at what a range of
different climate models predict might happen in the future.
Not exact matches
They then looked at 11
different climate models that
predict precipitation and CAPE through this century and are archived in the most recent Coupled
Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5).
Given the inverse relationship observed between their values, it has been possible to determine the additional area of vegetation needed (in this case of green roofs) necessary to reduce the temperature by the same amount as it is
predicted to rise in
different climate change
models for Seville.
However, learning to
predict possible
climate outcomes on the basis of both observed and
modeled behavior of the
different factors that make up the ocean ecosystem is by no means straightforward.
As well as using a
model to
predict the future, we can also use it to reconstruct ice sheets in the past, giving clues as to the behaviour of the ice sheet in
different climate settings.
While RealClimate has called into question the soundness of the paper's quite narrow conclusions of discrepancy between
model predictions and measurements of the relative rate of warming of
different levels of the atmosphere over the tropics, this paper is being touted by the deniers as showing that the
models are wrong to
predict any warming at all, and that predictions of future warming and
climate change can be entirely discounted.

These are among several possibilities that scientists from all over the world grapple with as they attempt to develop a regional
climate model for Sunderbans that can
predict different scenarios at a time when the mangrove delta is being battered by cyclones and getting inundated due to sea - level rise.
The third uses
climate models to
predict the theoretical effect of a doubling of carbon dioxide based on scientists» understanding of how
different elements of the
climate system interact.
Computer
models can be used
predict different future
climate patterns, and paleoclimate data provides a useful framework from which to base these
models.
Models can not be wrong as they only «project» and not «
predict»; apparently the meanings are quite
different and only morons outside of
Climate Science can not understand the difference between the two.
Unfortunately
climate models regarding rainfall in the region have told two
different stories: some
models have
predicted more rainfall in the region, while others have less.
They then looked at 11
different climate models that
predict precipitation and CAPE through this century and are archived in the most recent Coupled
Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5).
Recent multi
model estimates based on
different CMIP3
climate scenarios and
different dynamic global vegetation
models predict a moderate risk of tropical forest reduction in South America and even lower risk for African and Asian tropical forests (see also Section 12.5.5.6)(Gumpenberger et al., 2010; Huntingford et al., 2013).»
And there are many
different climate models (NASA's Goddard Institute of Space Studies's
model, NOAA, etc) used to
predict such outcomes.
It is successful in
predicting change in global mean surface temperature as computed from
climate models and it, thus, allows quantitative comparison of the contributions of
different agents to
climate change.
All of the
models predict that the globe will warm as the result of the unrestrained emission of heat trapping gases, but
different temperatures are obtained under the same conditions and both modest and catastrophic
climate changes are foreseen.
The study, published on February 28, 2018 in the peer - reviewed journal Conservation Biology, used
climate projection
models and known lion areas of eastern Africa to
predict where cattle may be exposed to
different levels of Trypanosomosis, a disease that kills millions of cattle a year in Africa, and how those changes may change interactions between cattle and lions.
