“…Another application of simple models (e.g., Boucher and Reddy, 2008;Bruckner et al, 2003;Enting et al, 1994;Good et al, 2011;Hooss et al, 2001;Huntingford et al, 2010;Oeschger et al, 1975;Raupach, 2013;Siegenthaler and Oeschger, 1984;Smith et al, 2017;Tanaka et al, 2007;Urban and Keller, 2010;Wigley and Raper, 1992) is to compare, analyze, or emulate more complex models (Geoffroy et al, 2012a, b;Meinshausen et al, 2011;Raper et al, 2001; Thompson and Randerson, 1999). Simple models also play a significant role in previous assessments of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (e.g., Harvey et al, 1997).…”
