Sentences with phrase «simulate less warming»

Climate scientist Kevin Trenberth also notes that the change in the estimated aerosol forcing is mainly associated with indirect aerosol effects, but half of GCMs don't include these indirect effects, and those that do actually tend to simulate less warming.

When the researchers simulated a second effect of climate change in addition to warming, namely drought, the results were even the opposite as expected: The soil animals ate less, and also the microorganisms living in the soil showed a decline in respiration — an indication that they also consumed less food.

... it is sometimes argued that the severity of model - projected global warming can be taken less seriously on the grounds that models fail to simulate the current climate sufficiently accurately.

Coupled models simulate much less warming over the 20th century in response to solar forcing alone than to greenhouse gas forcing (Cubasch et al., 1997; Broccoli et al., 2003; Meehl et al., 2004), independent of which solar forcing reconstruction is used (Chapter 2).

Fyfe and colleagues (2013) find that the observed warming over the periods 1993 - 2012 and 1998 - 2012 is significantly less than the warming in climate model simulations, but that the same models successfully simulate the rate of warming over the 1900 - 2012 period.

It elected not to simulate an amplifying effect, much less introduce dynamic cloud feedback to warming and solar radiation.

The observed rate of warming given above is less than half of this simulated rate, and only a few simulations provide warming trends within the range of observational uncertainty.

A small area of less warm water in the North Atlantic Ocean is simulated for JJA, and the warming is slightly greater than in DJF.
