Climate Sensitivity of the Community Climate System
Equilibrium climate sensitivity of the Community Climate System Model Version 4 (CCSM4) is 3.20◦C for 1◦ horizontal resolution in each component. This is about a half degree Celsius higher than in the previous version (CCSM3). The transient climate sensitivity of CCSM4 at 1◦ resolution is 1.72◦C, which is about 0.2◦C higher than in CCSM3. These higher climate sensitivities in CCSM4 cannot be ex...

متن کاملClimate Sensitivity: Uncertainty and Learning
The importance of human-induced climate change depends critically on the temperature sensitivity of the climate system, measured by the change in global-average near-surface temperature resulting from a doubling of the preindustrial carbon dioxide concentration, denoted by ∆T2x. Estimates of the value of ∆T2x have been based on mathematical climate models, instrumental measurements of temperatu...
متن کاملSimulated ENSO Sensitivity to Climate
This chapter examines the sensitivity of tropical Pacific interannual variability to changes in the climatological background state. Chapter 5 showed that although a wide variety of climate perturbations can affect the equatorial Pacific, the equatorial structure of the response tends to be similar in each case. Due to strong coupled feedbacks like those active in ENSO, the Pacific climatology ...
متن کاملMathematical Theory of Climate Sensitivity
Recent estimates of climate evolution over the coming century still differ by several degrees. This uncertainty motivates the work presented here. There are two basic approaches to apprehend the complexity of climate change: deterministically nonlinear and stochastically linear, i.e. the Lorenz and the Hasselmann approach. The “grand unification” of these two approaches relies on the theory of ...
