Such a PV-theta analysis may also prove important in providing insight into the global circulation of the atmosphere. Apart from the isentropic diagnostic ... HOSKINS,BJ - TELLUS A-DYN METEOROL OCEANOG 被引量: 529发表: 1991年 A Description of the NCAR Global Circulation Models A descrip- tio...
The article discusses the developments during the three-day conference on the global circulation of the atmosphere at the California Institute of Technology on November 4-6, 2004 in Pasadena, California. Isaac Held opened the conference with a talk on the important issues on global circulation ...
We're talking about the general circulation of the atmosphere. In its most basic form, you're just putting more heat in near the equator, and taking more heat out near the pole, and the differential heating causes a circulation. But the nature of that circulation becomes rather complicated b...
A Zonally Averaged, Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Model for Paleoclimate Studies A zonally averaged ocean model for the thermohaline circulation is coupled to a zonally averaged, one-layer energy balance model of the atmosphere to form ... TF Stocker,LA Mysak,DG Wright - 《Journal of Climate》 被引...
The global distribution of precipitation is influenced by the general circulation of the atmosphere, proximity to large bodies of water, and topography. Precipitation is most abundant where air rises, and least abundant where it sinks. It also tends to be greater near oceans and lakes, and in ...
General Circulation Model Development Akira Kasahara, in International Geophysics, 2000 I Introduction By the year 1972, the development of atmospheric models for weather prediction and climate simulation had progressed well along with the plan for the Global Weather Experiment which took place in 1979...
circulation, which are essential for enhancing predictive skill at sub-seasonal to seasonal scale. Following more than 10 years of scientific progress, the YOPP dataset makes available the output from a much improved atmosphere-land model that is coupled with an ocean and sea-ice model, is run...
Global warming - Climate Research: Modern research into climatic variation and change is based on a variety of empirical and theoretical lines of inquiry. One line of inquiry is the analysis of data that record changes in atmosphere, oceans, and climate
Though less dramatic than the climate changes that occurred during the Pleistocene Epoch, significant variations in global climate have nonetheless taken place over the course of the Holocene. During the early Holocene, roughly 9,000 years ago,atmospheric circulationand precipitation patterns appear to ...
This paper utilizes the predictions ofseveral Atmosphere-Ocean GeneralCirculation Models and the Global ImpactModel to create forecasts of the globalmarket impacts from climate change. Theforecasts of market impacts in 2100 varyconsiderably depending on climate scenariosand climate impact sensitivity. The ...
