The uncertainty associated with future climate projections linked to economic possibilities of what people will do is far larger than the uncertainty associated
with physical climate models.
And, because it eschews
complex physical climate models for a statistical, data - driven modeling approach, it is relatively «simple and parsimonious,» Kalra said.
MOM3, MOM4, and MOM5 are used as a code base for the ocean component of the GFDL coupled models used in the IPCC assessment reports, including the GFDL
CM2.X physical climate model series and the ESM2M Earth System Model.
Dr. John Nielsen - Gammon: The summary of projections for the Southern Great Plains is based on what the Risky Business report calls the «business as usual» path but what is in fact the representative concentration pathway (RCP) 8.5, the highest of the pathways used in the
IPCC physical climate modeling.
Physical climate models can be used along with geological information to predict general climate conditions on those islands with decent accuracy.
Physical climate models have never assimilated data in this sense.
You simply can not build
a physical climate model that reproduces the current warming from variations in solar radiation and volcanic aerosols alone.
The focus of
this physical climate model is on the role of aerosols, aerosol - cloud interactions, and atmospheric chemistry in climate variability and climate change.
