Collaborative Research: Climate Model Tests of the Early Anthropogenic Hypothesis

该项目的目的是使用NCAR CCSM3模式（包括海洋、海冰和植被模块）进行一系列模拟实验，以进一步研究早期人为假设（EAH）。这一假说引起了科学界的注意，因为它认为人类早在工业时代之前就开始改变地球的气候，以至于早期的人类活动取代了自然气候变冷的趋势。这项研究在本质上是变革性的，因为它为评估和理解人类与气候的相互作用提供了潜在的范式转变。

The aim of the project is to conduct a series of modeling experiments using the NCAR CCSM3 model (with ocean, sea ice, and vegetation modules) to further investigate the Early Anthropogenic Hypothesis (EAH). This hypothesis has captured the attention of the scientific community because it argues that humans began altering the Earths climate long before the industrial period so much so that early anthropogenic activities supplanted a natural climatic cooling trend with a warming trend. The research is transformational in nature because it provides for a potential paradigm shift in evaluating and understanding the interplay of humans and climate.
