Use of Computer Simulations in Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation

Posted on February 6, 2018 by climatechangefork

Figure 2 in last week’s blog demonstrated our most important tool for determining how we identify human contributions to climate change on both a local and global scale. The figure, taken from the NASA site, describes simulated 20th century global … Continue reading →
