TL;DR: The Community Earth System Model Version 2 (CESM2) as discussed by the authors is the most recent version of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMEI) coupled model.

TL;DR: The Parallel Climate Model (PCM) as mentioned in this paper uses the NCAR Community Climate Model 3 and Land Surface Model (LSM) for the atmospheric and land surface components, respectively, the DOE Los Alamos National Laboratory Parallel Ocean Program (POP) for ocean component, and the Naval Postgraduate School sea-ice model.

TL;DR: Two global coupled climate models show that even if the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere had been stabilized in the year 2000, the authors are already committed to further global warming of about another half degree and an additional 320% sea level rise caused by thermal expansion by the end of the 21st century.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) was used to compare the last 20 years of the twenty-first century compared to the 1986-2005 reference period for six-member ensembles.

TL;DR: In this article, the Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3), a global coupled climate model, is used to simulate future sea level rise in a tropical Pacific region.
