Statistical Analysis and Data Mining: The ASA Data Science Journal, 2011
AbstractClimate models are complex mathematical models designed by meteorologists, geophysicists, and climate scientists, and run as computer simulations, to predict climate. There is currently high variance among the predictions of 20 global climate models, from various laboratories around the world, that inform the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate ...

Modelling climate and the nature of climate models: A review
Journal of Climatology, 1983AbstractA new structural framework for climate models is presented. Four basic model types are discussed: general circulation models, energy balance models, one dimensional radiative convective models and two dimensional zonally averaged dynamical models.

Visualization for climate modeling
IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 1993Techniques for visualizing several climate variables, particularly clouds and wind velocities, are discussed. The techniques are volume rendering, textured contour surfaces, and vector field rendering. The application of these techniques is discussed in the context of a high-definition television (HDTV) animation produced to show global cloud motion ...

A changing climate for climate modeling
IEEE Concurrency, 1999Is the Earth's climate changing, and to what degree are these changes due to human actions? These are the key questions that must be answered before ratification of the Kyoto Protocol. Measurements must be used to evaluate the credibility of supercomputer models of the atmospheric, oceanic, and biotic systems that determine the world's climate.

Science, 2002
Thomas M. Smith et al. (“how accurate are climate simulations?”, Perspectives, 19 April, p. [483][1]) suggest that today's climate models simulate the climate history of Earth over the past 150 years “within the observed uncertainty of the observations.” In comparing model results with trends in sea surface temperature in several ocean basins, they ...

Climate models and climate extremes
Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 2002Climate change will alter expectations about the future to such an extent that past statistics about averages, variability and extremes will no longer be relevant. Scenarios of the future depend upon the rate of greenhouse gas increases (and changes in aerosol distributions) in the atmosphere, and are best produced by coupled ocean-atmosphere climate ...

Physics Today, 1981
The great social and economic impact of the weather continues to fuel the age-old quest for a way to predict future meteorological conditions. Enormous payoffs in areas such as agriculture, health and energy use await improved climate forecasting. Greater knowledge of the climate system would also contribute to our understanding of a wide range of ...

Climate Change and Climate Models
2015The uncontrolled extraction of natural resources, non-moderated growth in industrial activities, destruction of natural forest and water bodies followed by the rising demand for water and energy from the ever growing population to sustain their livelihood as well as luxury and the recent technological advancements has increased the stress on water ...
