Better predictions would require improved
climate - measurement tools, more sophisticated
climate models that work on
regional scales, and a better organized system to
integrate all the data, the report concludes.
Those findings will be
integrated into an atmospheric
model that will assess the implications of the findings on local and
regional climate scales.
These programs focus on
climate, aerosol and cloud physics; global and
regional scale
modeling;
integrated assessment of global change; and complex
regional meteorology and chemistry.
Within the
integrated Earth system science paradigm, our major research thrusts include the physics and chemistry of aerosols, clouds and precipitation;
integrating our understanding of
climate, energy, and other human and natural systems through the development and application of
models that span a wide range of spatial scales; and determining the impacts of and informing responses to
climate and other global and
regional environmental changes.
The session explores
regional integration of records and dynamic
modeling to: (1) understand better the nature of
climate - human - ecosystem interactions; (2) quantify the roles of different natural and anthropogenic drivers in forcing environmental change; (3) examine the feedbacks between anthropogenic activity and the natural system and; (4) provide
integrated datasets for
model development and data -
model comparisons.
We have developed the
Integrated Climate and Air Quality
Modeling System (ICAMS) through the one - way nesting of global —
regional models to examine the changes in the surface ozone...
The experts will be able to form an
integrated evaluation based on changes already observed, the processes known to influence the
regional climate of interest, and projections from those
models that have demonstrated accuracy in describing that region's
climate — all to a degree consistent with the kind of projection required.
As annual
integrated absorbed shortwave radiation is measured to be the same for the two hemispheres (in spite of the huge difference between their clear sky albedos), and this feature is replicated by no computational
climate model, generating realistic
regional scenarios from output of said
models is currently hopeless.
