Short ensembles: an efficient method for discerning climate-relevant sensitivities in atmospheric general circulation models

This paper explores the feasibility of an experimentation strategy for investigating sensitivities in fast components of atmospheric general circulation models. The basic idea is to replace the traditional serial-in-time long-term climate integrations by representative ensembles of shorter...
