Experiments

The various experiments undertaken by Climateprediction.net are shown below. Click on each to see more details about that particular experiment.

Thermohaline experiment

A study of the possible effects of a prescribed slowdown of the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. Read more here.

Sulphur cycle experiment

With this experiment we aim identify the effects of sulphate aerosol on the global climate system and the sensitivity of the model to perturbing sulphur cycle parameters. More information is available here.

Mid-holocene experiment

More information is here.

Geoengineering experiment

An estimate of the possible effects of climate change mitigation strategies, described in more detail here.

Millennium experiment

An experiment to refine the accuracy of climate models of the last millennium, including the “Medieval warm period” and the “little ice age.” Read more about it here.

Validation and attribution experiment

Seasonal Attribution Experiment

An investigation of the possible impact of human activity on extreme weather risk. More information here.
