…and an Earth System Model (classicalIPCC-typeEarth System Model)
Somekeydefinitions / notions Coupled Model : definitiondepends on whomyouspeak to…. • most of the time: ocean-atmospheregeneral circulation model = climate model • for a marine biogeochemist: OGCM / oceanbiogeochemical model • … and so on… Model Components : models or sub-models of a coupled system > Atmospheric GCM, Oceanic GCM, AtmosphericChemical Model, Land Surface Model… Flexible Use : > Full system > Online / Offline coupling
Step 1 : Because of the cost of the atmsophericchemistrymodels…. It isrunonly a few yearsevery 2/3 decades
Step 2 : Thencarbon / climate model withaerosols / O3 prescribed transientrunfrompre-industrial times to projections
