They used the Community Earth System Model, funded primarily by the Department of Energy and NSF, to simulate global climate as well as atmospheric chemistry conditions.

Many simulations have been run in an attempt to model the complexities of the atmospheric conditions in this situation and most outcomes aren't good.

Sachs's studio team of «astronauts» harvested «Mars rocks,» which were then painstakingly named, measured, and recorded; these appear in Mars Rocks (2016), as well as Vaguum (2012) and Nevada (2008 - 2009) where transparent vacuum chambers suggest the atmospheric conditions of Mars.
was originally polished with shellac and remains in good condition apart from some fine surface cracking; these cracks temporarily developed an unidentified fungal growth when the piece was shown in 1993 under changed atmospheric conditions (Tate Gallery Conservation Files).
Seated Figure was originally polished with shellac and remains in good condition apart from some fine surface cracking; these cracks temporarily developed an unidentified fungal growth when the piece was shown in 1993 under changed atmospheric conditions (Tate Gallery Conservation Files).
The advantage of such partially - coupled models is that they can be driven by past atmospheric conditions and the simulations match well the observed sea ice variability, which is strongly forced by the atmosphere.
However, it is possible to use a GCM to derive some information about the local climate through downscaling, as it is affected by both the local geography (a more or less given constant) as well as the large - scale atmospheric conditions.
There's a more serious consequence of being right for the wrong reasons: If there is a massive drop to well under 1M km ^ 2 and you interpret this as evidence of a tipping point, whereas what happened was a succession of 2007 - like atmospheric set ups, any prognosication will be shown wrong when in the following years the ice grows back and the condition doesn't maintain itself.
John Carter August 8, 2014 at 12:58 am chooses to state his position on the greenhouse effect in the following 134 word sentence: «But given the [1] basics of the greenhouse effect, the fact that with just a very small percentage of greenhouse gas molecules in the air this effect keeps the earth about 55 - 60 degrees warmer than it would otherwise be, and the fact that through easily recognizable if [2] inadvertent growing patterns we have at this point probably at least [3] doubled the total collective amount in heat absorption and re-radiation capacity of long lived atmospheric greenhouse gases (nearly doubling total that of the [4] leading one, carbon dioxide, in the modern era), to [5] levels not collectively seen on earth in several million years — levels that well predated the present ice age and extensive earth surface ice conditions — it goes [6] against basic physics and basic geologic science to not be «predisposed» to the idea that this would ultimately impact climate.»
Data will be analyzed to determine, where possible, baseline conditions to which changes in atmospheric deposition as well as chemical and biological changes can be detected and explained.
I agree that this knowledge has been used in greenouses where all other conditions are also optimised, but did you not read that in the real world increased atmospheric CO2 produced better results especially where the other conditions were unfavourable?
Pre-season and summer sea ice conditions as well as the spring and summer atmospheric circulation are reviewed in the pan-arctic post-season report.
How about «I took a well - known result of atmospheric dynamics, driven by non-equilibrium differential heating caused by the GHG GHE and claimed that it is a static feature of an adiabatically isolated atmosphere, ignoring the fact that the proposed thermal profile violates the second law of thermodynamics for the specific conditions of long relaxation times and equilibrium conditions I propose».
In addition, as land surface heterogeneity is a crucial part in high - resolution modeling especially with respect to land surface changes, we want to dedicate a larger part of the input data session to efforts of generating high - resolution land surface data sets (and time series of these) applicable as lower boundary conditions in atmospheric reanalysis systems as well as in coupled reanalysis approaches.
«Yet, they know very well that there is not one «global» climate, but a large variety of climates, depending on latitude, geographic conditions, and atmospheric dynamics.»

First, there is the «true» OLR, which can be measured from space or calculated for observed or specified atmospheric conditions (temperature profile, well - mixed GHG mixing ratios, humidity profile).
All of these studies, as well as our more recent ones, include the moderating effect of atmospheric stabilization aloft under high CO2 conditions, rather than simply increasing the sea surface temperature alone.
