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 ...

Climate Change and Climate Modeling
2010Provides students with a solid foundation in climate science, with which to understand global warming, natural climate variations, and climate models. As climate models are one of our primary tools for predicting and adapting to climate change, it is vital we appreciate their strengths and limitations.

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 ...

Climate Models: The Politics of Their Consumption Patterns
The International Journal of Climate Change: Impacts and ResponsesThis study reconceptualizes climate models as cultural and political objects of consumption rather than as neutral scientific forecasts. It argues that the uptake or rejection of climate models is mediated less by their technical validity than by the cultural logics through which individuals interpret them and the media frames that amplify these logics.
