Modeling of global climate variations in the 20th–23rd centuries with new RCP scenarios of anthropogenic forcing

Description
Summary:Climate change is one of the main global problems. In this paper we use the global climatic model developed at the Obukhov Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences (IAP RAS CM), to estimate the variations in the characteristics of the Earth's climatic system in the 20th- 23rd centuries accounting for the anthropogenic impact according to the modern Representative Concentration Pathways scenarios (RCP). Despite the exclusion of the anthropogenic impacts by the end of the 21st century, notable climatic changes in the 22nd-23rd centuries are expected due to climate inertia.
