Key to predicting the future climate: looking back millions of years

[ad_1] An international team of climate scientists, including two from the University of Michigan, suggests that researchers using numerical models to predict future climate change should include simulations of past climates when evaluating the model’s performance. “We urge the climate modeling community to pay attention to the past and actively …
