Abstract

The article discusses two new versions of FAMOUS, which plays an important role in filling hierarchy of climate models. It is informed that carbon cycle parameters of FAMOUS model use a perturbed physics ensemble technique. It is informed that in comparion to previous versions of FAMOUS, these new models have improved climatologies of surface and tropospheric air temperature and precipitation.
