Sentences with phrase «incorporated in global climate models»

Not exact matches

The models also include the greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants that result from these processes, and they incorporate all of that information within a global climate model that simulates the physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere, as well as in freshwater and ocean systems.

«Most climate models that incorporate vegetation are built on short - term observations, for example of photosynthesis, but they are used to predict long - term events,» said Bond - Lamberty, who works at the Joint Global Change Research Institute, a collaboration between PNNL and the University of Maryland in College Park, Md. «We need to understand forests in the long term, but forests change slowly and researchers don't live that long.»

In Stage 4, these aerosol models are validated and coupled to global climate models, which also incorporate models of the land surface, ocean, and sea ice.

Much of the uncertainty in projections of global climate change is due to the complexity of clouds, aerosols, and cloud - aerosol interactions, and the difficulty of incorporating this information into climate models.

First, they took the global temperature results from one set of climate models which incorporated the known changes in CO2.

In the context of models that include cloud processes, ranging from small - scale models of clouds and atmospheric chemistry to global weather and climate models, the unified theoretical foundations presented here provide the basis for incorporating cloud microphysical processes in these models in a manner that represent the process interactions and feedback processes over the relevant range of environmental and parametric conditionIn the context of models that include cloud processes, ranging from small - scale models of clouds and atmospheric chemistry to global weather and climate models, the unified theoretical foundations presented here provide the basis for incorporating cloud microphysical processes in these models in a manner that represent the process interactions and feedback processes over the relevant range of environmental and parametric conditionin these models in a manner that represent the process interactions and feedback processes over the relevant range of environmental and parametric conditionin a manner that represent the process interactions and feedback processes over the relevant range of environmental and parametric conditions.

These are incorporated based upon prior work using (1) the surface ozone response to methane emissions changes from two global composition - climate models, (2) the impact of ozone on yields of four staple crops, wheat, maize, soy and rice, based on the methodology of Van Dingenen et al. (2009), and (3) their valuation using world market prices, as described in Shindell et al. (2012a).
