1. A System Dynamics Approach to Global Warming (Noah) Junho Kang

2. Purpose/Goals Create a convincing model of global warming scenario Complicated enough to explain the whole scenario to a reasonable extent, but simple enough to be understood and applied elsewhere

3. Scope of the Project Although more narrowing down of the topic is required later, current scope of the project is to estimate, to a certain degree, the effects that increasing amount of Carbon Dioxide gas will have on the Earth's atmosphere. The "effects" currently include, but is not limited to, global temperatures, frequency of hurricanes, methane release, and other consequences that will arise from these effects.

4. Expected Results Direct Cause-and-effect relationship between Earth’s Global Temperature and Carbon Dioxide Concentration Demonstrate the impact of Global Warming

5. Background Daisyworld Parallel Computing-based Climate Simulations System Dynamics Modeling and Agent- based Modeling

6. Theory System Dynamics Modeling Netlogo STELLA Complex System Modeling

7. Current Progress on Model Five Stocks: Land, Soil, Atmosphere, Ocean and Fuel Eight Flows: External Addition, Photosynthesis, Respirations Variables

8. Current Progress on Code Output system consisting of an Output file and a graph Automatic external addition correction ever 10,000 ticks during run

9. Current Results Current (somewhat dubious) results show a relationship between global temperature and Carbon Dioxide concentration in Atmosphere
