Climatprediction.net The project was launched in 1999. Its purpose - to check mathematical models of climate change and assess how much influence the overall picture of small changes. To solve such a complex task requires great computing power. The sponsors have found them, and very cheaply.Computers, which made all the calculations, the draft provided by volunteers from around the world. Software Climatprediction.net works as a background process, whenever the computer is turned on. The "gift" for participation in the project from each computer conducting the calculation, the individual develops a model of weather changes in the world. According to data for 2005, the project helped develop more than four million "model" years and provided the project, a total of over eight thousand years of computer time. Climatprediction.net became the most ambitious experiment in climate modelling, the possibility of which far outweigh the possibility of supercomputing. One of the results obtained by project participants Climatprediction.net, was concluded that the annual average temperature on Earth could rise to 11 degrees, even if greenhouse gas emissions be reduced by half. In addition, the scientists concluded that climate severely reacts to even minor changes. Therefore, to predict the consequences of any action to combat global warming appears to be very difficult.
