A Study of the Spurious Orographic Resonance in Semi-Implicit Semi-Lagrangian Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian (hereafter SISL) numerical integration scheme has been widely adopted in atmospheric models as it permits, without loss of accuracy, the use of time steps much larger than those permitted ...
Role of Polar Amplification in Long-Term Surface Air Temperature Variations and Modern Arctic Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study uses an extensive dataset of monthly surface air temperature (SAT) records (including previously unutilized) from high-latitude (>60°N) meteorological land stations. Most records have been updated by very recent ...
Factors Influencing Simulated Changes in Future Arctic Cloudiness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study diagnoses the changes in Arctic clouds simulated by the Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) in a transient 2 ? CO2 simulation. Four experiments?one fully coupled and three with prescribed SSTs and/or ...
Arctic Ocean Warming Contributes to Reduced Polar Ice Cap
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of modern and historical observations demonstrates that the temperature of the intermediate-depth (150?900 m) Atlantic water (AW) of the Arctic Ocean has increased in recent decades. The AW warming has been uneven ...
