A good place for the non-specialist, but mathematically aware, to start is a basic energy balance model: http://puzlet.com/m/b00gf http://puzlet.com/m/b00gf . (

A good place for the non-specialist, but mathematically aware, to start is a basic energy balance model: http://puzlet.com/m/b00gf http://puzlet.com/m/b00gf . (Disclosure: I am an engineer; I wrote the visualization.). By all means, dig into the data and reports, but I personally felt much more comfortable with the whole area once I understood the basic physics and sensitivity to the main parameters.
- RachelF 12y agoI find his engineering approach interesting, if heretical. He seems to dislike scientists as they have no skin in the game: "The focus is on an Engineering Approach – where data are critical and there are consequences for being wrong; not the Scientist approach – where a theory is the product and it can be right or wrong without repercussions."
