Sentences with phrase «idealised climate»

To explore how these physical processes influence the ITCZ width, we use an idealised climate model (see O'Gorman & Schneider 2008 for a description) to simulate a wide range of different climates.

Here we present results from Byrne & Schneider (2016) in which we combine basic theory and idealised climate - model simulations to investigate the physical processes determining the width of the ITCZ and its sensitivity to climate change.

Not exact matches

They will exploit a combination of state - of - the - art climate model experiments, advanced statistical techniques and idealised dynamical frameworks to accomplish the project.

Nineteen of them have been used to perform idealised 1 % / yr CO2 - increase climate change experiments suitable for direct intercomparison and these are analysed here.

The authors observe that wide variations in rates of tectonic uplift and subsidence in different locations around the world at particular times mean no effective coastal management plan can rest upon speculative computer projections regarding an idealised future global sea level, such as those provided by the United Nations» Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

In the idealised situation that the climate response to a doubling of atmospheric CO2 consisted of a uniform temperature change only, with no feedbacks operating (but allowing for the enhanced radiative cooling resulting from the temperature increase), the global warming from GCMs would be around 1.2 °C (Hansen et al., 1984; Bony et al., 2006).
