Del Genio, A.D., 1996: Observational requirements for modeling of global and regional climate change. In Radiation and Water in the Climate System: Remote Measurements. E. Raschke, Ed., NATO ASI Series I: Global Environmental Change, vol. 45, Springer-Verlag, pp. 31-57, doi:10.1007/978-3-662-03289-3_2.

Predicting the rate and geographic distribution of future climate changes caused by anthropogenic perturbations such as increasing greenhouse gas and aerosol concentrations is perhaps the most important single problem in the earth sciences today. General circulation models (GCMs) are the tools of choice for making such projections. Simulating climate change with GCMs has become a worldwide activity; 12 modeling groups thus far have performed equilibrium doubled CO2 calculations with atmosphere-only GCMs, and 8 are simulating transient greenhouse gas increase scenarios with coupled ocean-atmosphere models for the 1995 IPCC scientific assessment.
