Simulations of past climates
Over the last 125,000 years, a great ice age has come and gone. Understanding the causes of such natural changes in climate, and the corresponding variations in greenhouse gases, is an essential prerequisite to improving confidence in future predictions.
The GENIE models and grid computing resources are helping scientists to simulate the climate and carbon cycle through the last ice age cycle. By comparing the models with past climate data the team can constrain how the models represent key processes, improving confidence in future projections.
