Modified atmospheric-oceanic model for simulation of climatic temperature change

Abstract

The objective of this research is to study the increase in global temperature caused by the change of concentration of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. A computer program is developed for predicting the climatic temperature change using the modified atmospheric-oceanic model. The predicted global temperatures increasing with time or the concentration of greenhouse gases are compared with the measurement data published in many references. This program developed in this work is composed of two main sections, namely, calculation and theoretical sections. Visual Basic for Windows compiler was employed to develop the calculation section. Meanwhile, the theoretical section was developed using Fore Help software. The results of simulation are presented both numerically and graphically. From investigation, it was found that there are no significant difference between the calculation results and the actually measured data. The simulation program predict a 2.2-2.6 ℃ rise in the global temperature in 2025
