DISCUSSION FORUM ON GLOBAL WARMING

 

MODERATORS:  Christina Ravelo and Gabe Filippelli

 

Background

 

Global warming predictions are based primarily on simulations of future climate using General Circulation Models (GCMs).  Global warming Mitigation and Adaptation strategies are being designed, in a large part based on the predictions made by GCMs.  Yet, we know that many important climate processes are not understood and/or not well parameterized in GCMs. 

 

Lead-in Question

 

How can drilling be used to greatly improve our ability to predict, mitigate and adapt to future global warming?
