The ocean absorbs a quarter of the CO₂ given out by human activities, playing a major role in slowing climate change. To have a better grasp of these processes is crucial to understand the ocean’s role in the global climate system and to better foresee disruptions caused by the changing climate.
Digital models are among the most frequently used tools to do this. They represent the climate on a virtual planet earth, and are indispensable to explore past and predict future climate conditions, and to understand how our current climate works.
