The new findings, based on detailed
computer simulations using the best available
global circulation models, are described this week in the journal Science Advances, in a paper by MIT professor of environmental engineering Elfatih Eltahir, MIT Research Scientist Eun Soon Im, and Professor Jeremy Pal at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles.
The one that pops out the most is that it admits that CGM's (
Global Circulation Models, or
Computer Models) have been getting it wrong all along.
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).
