Here is a thread on climate modelling. 🧵
A climate model is an abstract description of climate using mathematical concepts or computer language.
It is used to simulate climate dynamics and interactions of components and drivers of climate (such as the greenhouse effect, atmosphere, oceans, land surface, ice).
Teleconnection in atmospheric science refers to climate anomalies being related to each other at large distances (typically thousands of kilometers).
Teleconnections are recurrent – as similar patterns tend to occur repeatedly.
An emblematic teleconnection is that linking sea-level pressure at Tahiti and Darwin, Australia, which defines the atmospheric component of El Niño.
