Global Circulation Models – the basis for climate change science

GCMs are thus the best tools for all climate science, and allow conservationists, planners and politicians to test different response scenar ...

Being ill-equipped to handle this specific myth, as it was novel to me, I couldn’t crisply reveal the errors in the skeptic’s argument. That experience haunts me to this day, because I suspect that there were people in th ...
