Resumen:

Future scenarios (through 2100) developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicate a wide range of concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG) and aerosols, and the corresponding range of temperatures. These data, allow inferring that higher temperature increases are directly related to higher emission levels of GHG and to the increase in their atmospheric concentrations. It is evident that lower temperature increases are related to smaller amounts of emissions and, to lower GHG concentrations. In this work, simple linguistic rules are extracted from results obtained through the use of simple linear scenarios of emissions of GHG in the Magicc model. These rules describe the relations between the GHG, their concentrations, the radiative forcing associated with these concentrations, and the corresponding temperature changes. These rules are used to build a fuzzy model, which uses concentration values of GHG as input variables and gives, as output, the temperature increase projected for year 2100. A second fuzzy model is presented on the temperature increases obtained from the same model but including a second source of uncertainty: climate sensitivity. Both models are very attractive because their simplicity and capability to integrate the uncertainties to the input (emissions, sensitivity) and the output (temperature).
