| Summary: | In this article we consider an energy balance climate model.
For a given ice line, we use spectral method to derive an approximation
of the solution. Then we propose a method to update the ice line and to
derive an updated approximation of the solution. We compare the difference
between the approximation with fixed ice line and the approximation with
updated ice line by looking at the temperature profile at some specific
locations and times. The significance of the method to update the ice line
is that it is model free. Therefore, it can be used in other climate models. |
