1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Why does it run data for the past? (Message 38540) Posted 17 Dec 2009 by old_user606541 Post: I\'ve looked around the site, but haven\'t found an answer to this question: Why does it run models for dates in the past? Both of my currently running models are for 1974 and 1976. Why is it modeling something that already happend? It seems illogical to me, but surely there is some good reason? Disclaimer: I know virtually nothing about climate modeling, but I am curious. Thanks!
