Equations in a Model and Simple Examples
A full General Circulation Model (GCM) typically has four dimensions:
However, scientists often use much simpler models to help them understand basic principles of the atmosphere. These are also a good introduction to models because they are easier to conceptualize.
Let's look at three examples:
