High end of climate sensitivity in new climate models seen as less plausible
E-Mail IMAGE: The researchers found that models with lower climate sensitivity are more consistent with observed temperature differences, particularly between the northern and southern hemispheres. The graph shows changes in the annual... view more Credit: Image by Chenggong Wang, Program in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Princeton University A recent analysis of the latest generation of climate models -- known as a CMIP6 -- provides a cautionary tale on interpreting climate simulations as scientists develop more sensitive and sophisticated projections of how the Earth will res...
