Climate change in centuries in observational and model data Evgeny Volodin, Institute of Numerical Mathematics RAS, Moscow, Russia

1.Model sensitivity to doubling of CO2. 2.Model and observed trends in centuries. 3.Future climate scenarios in centuries.

Model sensitivity to doubling of CO2 is studied on the basis of experiments with: 1.Coupled atmosphere and full ocean general circulation models. Equilibrium response can be achieved in very long runs (about 1000 years) because of deep ocean thermal inertia. Usually transient response is studied. 2.Coupled atmosphere model and 50-m ocean. Model use heat flux adjustment to reproduce observed climate. Equilibrium response can be achieved in years.

Longwave (full black), shortwave (dashed) and total (red) radiation forcing due to doubling of CO2. Positive means downward.

Radiation heating due to doubling of CO2.

Radiation forcing due to doubling of CO2 ΔF is about 4 W/m 2. What about near-surface warming ΔT? If we assume that in control climate F=σT 4 and F+ΔF=σ(T+ΔT) 4, than ΔT = 1.1 K 2. If we take into account also positive feedback with water vapour (assuming constant relative humidity), than ΔT = 2.0 K 3. If we take into account also surface albedo feedback, we have ΔT = 2.3 – 2.7 K Real climate models have ΔT = 1.5 – 4.5 K. For some models this parameter can be as large as 8 – 11 K. Main reason of uncertainty is different sensitivity of model cloudiness. In models with low ΔT usually we have low ΔCRF (cloud radiation forcing). In models with high ΔT we have high ΔCRF.

About 20 models are participating now in comparison of modeling climate of century and future climate changes in centuries. The results will be used in 4-th IPCC report.
