In a study published in <i><a href="http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00382-020-05521-x">Climate Dynamics</a></i>, researchers from ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ University introduce a new and more precise way to project the Earth’s temperature. Based on historical data, it considerably reduces uncertainties compared to previous approaches.</p> Mon, 21 Dec 2020 15:53:21 +0000 shirley.cardenas@mcgill.ca 254107 at /newsroom New approach to global-warming projections could make regional estimates more precise /newsroom/channels/news/new-approach-global-warming-projections-could-make-regional-estimates-more-precise-287175 <p>A new method for projecting how the temperature will respond to human impacts supports the outlook for substantial global warming throughout this century – but also indicates that, in many regions, warming patterns are likely to vary significantly from those estimated by widely used computer models.</p> Tue, 15 May 2018 15:01:54 +0000 justin.dupuis@mcgill.ca 40248 at /newsroom
