Some of the latest climate models provide unrealistic projections of future warming

A new study by climatologists at the University of Michigan concludes that some of the latest generation climate models may be overly sensitive to increases in carbon dioxide and therefore project unrealistic future warming. In a letter scheduled for publication April 30 in the journal Natural climate change, the researchers say that projections from one […]

Machine learning improves weather and climate models

Source: Journal of Advances in Earth Systems Modeling (JAMES) Weather and climate models have improved dramatically in recent years, as progress in one area has tended to benefit the other. But there is still significant uncertainty in the model outputs that are not precisely quantified. Indeed, the processes that govern climate and weather are chaotic, […]
