1 (Palaeo-)climate sensitivity: ideas and definitions from the NPG literature Michel Crucifix Université catholique de Louvain & Belgian National Fund of Scientific Research Ringberg Grand Challenge Workshop: Earth's Climate Sensitivities 25 Mars 2015 (thanks to WCRP and BELSPO for funding my participation)
2 FD theorem assume time scale sep. attractor measure static def. dynamical assume long-memory processes Lovejoy approach
3 E = F R E = F T ( omitted) if equilibrium 0=F R T = F/ E : energy imbalance F : Radiative forcing R : Radiative response T : Global average of surface air temperature
4 E = F T is a diagnostic model supposes a consistent link between T, E, F and observable quantities different models if T = radiative temperature, or global average of temperature, or related to classical state variables like enthalpy (accounting for snow and sea-ice molt)
5 FD theorem assume time scale sep. attractor measure static def. dynamical assume long-memory processes question basic model Bayesian model selection / calibration Lovejoy approach
6 Dynamic extension C p dt dt = F T T = F 1 e C p t
7 Multivariate model (e.g.: box model) C dt dt = F T T / 1 X ai e it i eigenvalues of C 1 classical hypothesis : one time scale will dominate, slow responses considered constant and fast responses integrated in the definition of the forcing go back to 1-D case
8 Non-linear extension C dt dt = F (T )T (1) may exhibit all sorts of exotic behaviors (chaos, limit cycles, etc.) that WILL be relevant for climate system dynamics, at least on some time scales most naturally defined in a (quasi-)linear setting again, the hope is that some sort of time scale separation will apply
9 FD theorem assume time scale sep. attractor measure static def. dynamical assume long-memory processes question basic model Bayesian model selection / calibration Lovejoy approach
10 Going stochastic CdT =(F (T )T)dt + B(T )d! going stochastic may be justified either using a formal argument of separation of time scales (requires averaging over characteristic period + time-mixing hypothesis) or simply heuristically (i.e., by saying it works )
11 FD theorem assume time scale sep. attractor measure static def. dynamical assume long-memory processes question basic model Bayesian model selection / calibration Lovejoy approach
12 Whether we adopt a stochastic approach, OR, consider chaotic dynamics (with ergodic theory), (or both...) variables are described in terms of density distribution ( space measures ) P T (t) Probability density ht (t 1 ) 2 i Moments of distribution at time t ht (t 1 ) 3 i ht (t 1 ),T(t 2 )i Covariances
13 controls both mean response and variability Very simple expression if linear and gaussian:
14 if LINEAR model and GAUSSIAN noise (Wiener process): dx = adt + d! ) hx 2 i = 2 2a c(t) =e a t... GCMs urges caution (non-gaussian) see Cooper and Haynes for attempts at tackling non- Gaussianity with a non-parametric approach. Not trivial.
