Visualizations of simulation results

Climate Projections


In the section Science we offer information, images and many animations showing results of the climate change scenario simulations, which have been realised by scientists from MPI-M and the "Model and Data" group at DKRZ in regard to the IPCC Assessment Report 4 - to appear in 2007.
"Business As Usual" greenhouse gas simulation with a coupled atmosphere ocean model (Data: MPI for Meteorology): mean 2 m temperature change (relative to 1860) for 1960, 2000 and 2040. (JPG, 137 kB)

Projected 2 m temperature change for the year 2070 according to the IPCC SRES scenarios a2 and b2 - average over all models (Data: IPCC 2001). (GIF, 64 kB)

Seasonal change of sea ice and snow coverage on the northern hemisphere in a greenhouse sensitivity experiment with a coupled atmosphere ocean model. Left panel: undisturbed climate; right panel: greenhose climate in 2100 (Data: MPI for Meteorology). (AVI, 3.6 MB)

Simulation of the 2 m temperature change due to greenhouse gas emissions with a coupled atmosphere ocean model (ECHAM4/OPYC). (Data: MPI for Meteorology). (AVI, 17 MB)
