Learning Objectives
The course aims to provide a scientific understanding of climate models, highlighting their
potential and critical issues, without going into numerical details.
Areas where further research advances are needed in order to be able to include/change the
appropriate parameterisations in climate models will be outlined.
The forecasts produced by climate models for the coming decades and their statistical reliability
will be discussed.
Finally, possible local and global actions
Program
Climate model equations and solution methods.
Constraints, criticalities and capabilities of climate models.
Evolution of climate models.
Components of the climate system simulated in a climate model.
IPCC.
Introduction to impacts, adaptation and vulnerability.
