Climate Modelling
To help understand how the climate works and how people are affecting it, we can use computers to model the different systems.
The models can range in complexity from very simple to very complex depending on what you are investigating.
Climateprediction.net uses state-of-the-art climate models to investigate its different projects.
We use two main types of models: Global Climate Models (GCMs) and Regional Climate Models (RCMs). All of our weather@home experiments use Regional Climate Models.
In all of our experiments, we run large ensembles of models.
