GFDL Model

The GFDL model, developed by NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, is a computer simulation used to project future climate and weather patterns. It uses complex mathematics to represent atmospheric, oceanic, and land processes, helping scientists understand how factors like greenhouse gases influence climate change. By running these simulations, the GFDL model can forecast potential changes in temperature, precipitation, and sea levels over decades, aiding policymakers and researchers in preparing for and responding to climate impacts.
