Simulation of climate change in Iran during 2071-2100 using PRECIS regional climate modelling system

Parameters such as future precipitation, temperature, snowfall, and runoff were modeled using PRECIS regionalclimate modeling system in Iran with the horizontal resolutions of 0.44×0.44°C in latitude and longitude under SRESA2 and B2 scenarios. The dataset was based on HadAM3p during the periods of 1961-1990 and 2071-2100. Theoverall precipitation error of the model in the period of 1961-1990 w...

Regional climate modelling

A new technique for climate simulations and projections has emerged over the past 15 years that allows to reach unprecedented spatial resolution at an affordable computing cost: regional climate modelling. The technique has matured and several groups around the world are participating in model intercomparison projects and collaborating in coordinated endeavour to produce ensemble climate-change...

How Should We Teach Simulation ?

This paper deals with the issue of how one can teach simulation in the most time-efficient way. We first distinguish between different types of student as regards their background and future needs. We next look at reasons for studying simulation at a business school. Next we compare animation oriented simulators with simulation languages. We then study a list of desirable criteria for simulatio...
