Description

The Earth's climate and its variations has always been of great interest to humans as it has major impact on human activities.

In this paper we present prototype models for the mean temperature of the Earth which will enable us to explore possible bifurcations in the Earth's climate which might due in part to anthropogenic emissions and natural forcing processes.
