An experiment in which the time-dependent response of a climate model is analysed in response to a time-varying change of forcing. 3, record 2, English, - transient%20climate%20experiment
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
If the forcing is allowed to evolve gradually according to a prescribed emission scenario, the time-dependent response of a climate model may be analysed. Such an experiment is called a transient climate experiment. 4, record 2, English, - transient%20climate%20experiment

On peut analyser la réponse d'un modèle climatique en fonction du temps lorsqu'on laisse le forçage évoluer progressivement selon un scénario d'émissions prescrit. On parle alors d'expérience climatique transitoire. 1, record 2, French, - exp%C3%A9rience%20climatique%20transitoire
