Simulation of past and future climates with a model coupling atmosphere, ocean and cryosphere

Research project IT/SC/020 (Research action IT)

Persons :

  • Prof. dr.  BERGER André - Université Catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain)
    Financed belgian partner
    Duration: 15/12/1990-14/12/1994

Description :

The objectives of the project are :

- to improve the quality of the simulation of the last glacial-interglacial cycles with a 2D model and to extend the transient simulation over more
glacial cycles.
- to use this 2D model for studying the climate changes in the recent past and the near future.
- to develop and to use 3D climate models to reproduce regional climate and study processes that need to parameterized in 2D models.
