GFDL Climate Model | Community Health

The GFDL climate model is a type of general circulation model that uses mathematical equations to simulate the behavior of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. Developed by the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, it is used to study climate change, weather patterns, and the interactions between the atmosphere and oceans. The model is a key component in understanding the Earth's climate system and predicting future changes. Researchers like [[syukuro-manabe|Syukuro Manabe]] and [[kirk-bryan|Kirk Bryan]] have contributed to the development of the GFDL climate model, which is widely used by organizations like the [[national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration|National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration]] (NOAA) and the [[intergovernmental-panel-on-climate-change|Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change]] (IPCC)
