HadGEM1
Encyclopedia
HadGEM1 is a coupled climate model
developed at the Met Office
’s Hadley Centre. It represents a significant advance on its predecessor, HadCM3
, in terms of its science and is better at carrying out new climate experiments. HadGEM1 also provides a foundation for further modelling advances across a range of applications, particularly involving enhanced resolution and full Earth System modelling.
Climate model
Climate models use quantitative methods to simulate the interactions of the atmosphere, oceans, land surface, and ice. They are used for a variety of purposes from study of the dynamics of the climate system to projections of future climate...
