Introduction to climate dynamics and climate Modelling - Chapter 3. Modelling the climate system Introduction What is a climate model ? In general terms, a climate model could be defined as a mathematical representation of the climate system based on physical, biological and chemical principles (Fig. ). The equations derived from these laws are so complex that they must be solved numerically. As a consequence, climate models provide a solution which is discrete in space and time, meaning that the results obtained represent averages over regions, whose size depends on model resolution, and for specific times.
3. Modelling of the climate system . only the most important properties, so as to understand in depth the nature of a feedback or the complex interaction between the various components of the system. This is also the reason why simple models are often used to analyse the results of more complex models
