Sentences with phrase «generate predictions for the future»

Not exact matches

(Paper abstract) Climate models may underestimate heat stored in ground General circulation models (GCMs), the primary tool for estimating the magnitude of future climate change, rely on realistic inputs to generate accurate predictions.

Solutions IBM (or the report writers recommend) are fuel efficient cars, more public transportation, more ridesharing, more telecommuting, combined with the use of technology - congestion charging, but an integrated «multi modal» management system that would be able to generate predictions for operators on what traffic was going to do in the very near future, as well as end user information sent via phones and smart phones, to help those in traffic make alternate solutions.

For example, one approach to generating probabilistic future predictions is to implement a weighting procedure based on the performance of the present day climate simulation (e.g., Sexton et al. 2012).

Indeed, working with predictions for future temperature increases and glacier melt rates generated by ten separate global climate models — all of which are also used by the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change - the team have concluded that these smaller ice sources will contribute around 12 centimetres to world sea - level increases over the remainder of the century, with this likely to have catastrophic consequences for numerous natural habitats as well as for hundreds of thousands of people.
