Climate as complex networks means that we can look at climates as interconnected systems instead of individual elements. This means that all the different parts of the climate are all connected and influence each other. For example, if it is warmer in one part of the world, then it can affect wind and water patterns in other parts of the world. These patterns all work together to shape and change the climate, which is why it is so complicated. By understanding how all of these connections work, scientists can better predict how the climate will change in the future so that we can better prepare for it.
