This edited collection of works by leading climate scientists and
philosophers introduces readers to issues in the foundations,
evaluation, confirmation, and application of climate models. It
engages with important topics directly affecting public policy,
including the role of doubt, the use of satellite data, and the
robustness of models. Climate Modelling provides an early and
significant contribution to the burgeoning Philosophy of Climate
Science field that will help to shape our understanding of these
topics in both philosophy and the wider scientific context. It
offers insight into the reasons we should believe what climate
models say about the world but addresses the issues that inform how
reliable and well-confirmed these models are. This book will be of
interest to students of climate science, philosophy of science, and
of particular relevance to policy makers who depend on the models
that forecast future states of the climate and ocean in order to
make public policy decisions.
