Climate Modeling and Projections of Global Warming

COFFEE_KLATCH  · Invited

Abstract

Physics of the climate system is captured, with varying degrees of success, in climate models used to hindcast paleoclimates and project future climate change. This talk reviews the formulation of climate models, validation/falsification of processes included, and presents research challenges for advancing projections of future climate change.
