Title
A data modeling approach to climate change attribution
Abstract
Climate modeling and analysis of climate change have largely been based on forward simulation with physical models. We propose here a data centric approach to climate study based solely on the actual observed data. This novel approach utilizes a variety of relevant statistical modeling and machine learning techniques such as spatial-temporal causal modeling and extreme value modeling, and suggests multiple future research directions. We will describe preliminary results using data for North America from CRU, NOAA, NASA, NCDC, and CDIAC, as well as certain technical challenges encountered. It is hoped that this alternative perspective will help uncover new insights, improve aspects of simulation models with known uncertainties, and provide a useful complementary approach to climate study.
