PDF-[DOWNLOAD]-A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming

Global warming skeptics often fall back on the argument that the scientific case for global warming is all model predictions nothing but simulation they warn us that we need to wait for real data sound science In A Vast Machine Paul Edwards has news for these skeptics without models there are no data Today no collection of signals or observations even from satellites which can see the whole planet with a single instrument becomes global in time and space without passing through a series of data models Everything we know about the worlds climate we know through models Edwards offers an engaging and innovative history of how scientists learned to understand the atmosphere to measure it trace its past and model its future. A set of 16 climate models from the CMIP5 initialized experiments are analyzed to see if they can simulate the mid-1970s shift when there was rapid global warming, and the early-2000s hiatus when warming slowed.

Carbon dioxide and other air pollution that is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the planet to warm up. Coal-burning power plants are the largest U.S. source of carbon dioxide pollution -- they produce 2.5 billion tons every year. Automobiles, the second largest source, create nearly 1.5 billion tons of CO2 annually. Liceo. . Scientifico. “G. . Galilei. ”. Pescara. S. 2012 – 2013. Nicoletta. . Corradi. 2^A. English Teacher: .
