Global warming is moving faster than the best models can keep a handle on. Fifty years into the project of modeling Earth’s ...

Heat Absorption Oceans play a crucial role in absorbing excess heat generated by greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, they take ...

Earth system models (ESMs ... ESMs are composed of model components that simulate individual parts of the climate system (such as the atmosphere, ocean, land, and sea ice) and the exchange ...

Climate and Earth system modelling is the use of mathematical representations of key components and properties of the atmosphere, ocean and biosphere to construct computer models. These models ...

This may not sound important, but it turns out this process is critical in understanding the flow of carbon, in Earth’s climate system, where it goes and then where it finally resides.

Scientists studied ocean heat exchange instead of surface temperature. Their data shows no AMOC decline since 1963.

In recent years, his research has helped to show that large climate changes tend to occur in the natural system as abrupt and rapid shifts in mode probably driven by internal adjustments in the Earth ...

An Earth system model (ESM) is a type of climate model that combines components of the Earth's system: the atmosphere, oceans, land, ice, and biogeochemical cycles, to simulate interactions and ...

To consider how an Earth system science approach can inform research on climate intervention, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a virtual workshop on June 20-22, 2023 ...
