Coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation model
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010450
A sophisticated numerical model that simulates the interactions between the Earth's atmosphere and oceans to project future climate states. These models represent the exchange of heat, moisture, and momentum between the two systems, allowing for a more realistic depiction of climate variability and change. They are fundamental tools for climate research and long-range weather forecasting.
