Manabe’s subsequent work led to the development of the GFDL GCM, initially just including the atmosphere, but eventually with an ocean, and then the transient results shown in Manabe and Stouffer (1993). The basic issue stems from the different timescales of the ocean and atmosphere. But let’s go back to the beginning.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. Several floating ice shelves – the massive slabs of ice that push back grounded ice from flowing into the ocean – have catastrophically broken up in a matter of days because of such melting.

The physics-based models describe how energy flows through the atmosphere and ocean, as well as how the forces from different air masses push against each other. Furthermore, the volume of the oceans increases from the melting of land ice. The global sea level acts like the mercury in a thermometer because warmer water expands.
