Here is a wonderful resource for students and teachers to use for climate science interests. You can run a professional climate simulator without having to know the vast levels of science or coding that go into such simulators. The Educational Global Climate Modeling site at Columbia University, EdGCM, takes an old NASA climate model and has developed a GUI for user friendly accessibility for running the simulations.
Run and analyze your own simulations using parameter sets of your choice, to 'discover' the effects of all sorts of physical processes on the global climate. I believe you can even run simulations for past climates, such as ice age periods, to learn how natural physics processes cause cycles in climate patterns.
This could be a game changer both for learning about the actual science of climate, as well as the science research process used to study climate!! Have phun!
