abstract = "The response of the global climate system to atmospheric CO2
concentration increase in time is scrutinized employing the
Brazilian Climate Model (BESM-OA2.3). Through the achievement of
over two thousand years of coupled model integrations in ensemble
mode, it is shown that the model simulates the signal of recent
changes of global climate trends, depicting a steady atmospheric
and oceanic temperature increase and corresponding marine ice
retreat. The model simulations encompass the time period from 1960
to 2105, following the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5
(CMIP5) protocol. Notwithstanding the accurate reproduction of
large scale ocean-atmosphere coupled phenomena, like the ENSO
phenomena over the Equatorial Pacific and the interhemispheric
gradient mode over the Tropical Atlantic, the BESM-OA2.3 coupled
model shows systematic errors on sea surface temperature and
precipitation which resemble those of other global coupled climate
models. Yet, the simulations demonstrate the models potential to
contribute to the international efforts on global climate change
research, sparking interest in global climate change research
within the Brazilian climate modeling community, constituting a
building block of the Brazilian Framework for Global Climate
Change Research.",
