Sentences with phrase «very simple climate model»

A paper they published in 2008 used a very simple climate model to make this argument, but subsequent research showed that their model was actually too simple, and failed to accurately represent how the global climate operates (green in the first graphic).
There are obviously attractions in very simple climate models like 1D EBMs (energy balance models).
