A Three-Dimensional Coupled Chemistry–Climate Model Simulation of Past Stratospheric Trends
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A coupled chemistry?climate model is integrated for the period March 1979?January 2000 with sea surface temperatures and sea ice amounts specified from observations. Greenhouse gas concentrations and halogen loading are ...
The Influence of the Equatorial QBO on Sudden Stratospheric Warmings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A global primitive equation model of the stratosphere and mesosphere is integrated for specified planetary wave forcing at the 100 mb level with mean zonal flow conditions corresponding to the westerly and easterly phases ...
The Strength of the Brewer–Dobson Circulation in a Changing Climate: Coupled Chemistry–Climate Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The strength of the Brewer?Dobson circulation (BDC) in a changing climate is studied using multidecadal simulations covering the 1960?2100 period with a coupled chemistry?climate model, to examine the seasonality of the ...
Evolution of Water Vapor Concentrations and Stratospheric Age of Air in Coupled Chemistry-Climate Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Stratospheric water vapor concentrations and age of air are investigated in an ensemble of coupled chemistry-climate model simulations covering the period from 1960 to 2005. Observed greenhouse gas concentrations, halogen ...
Stratospheric Ozone and Temperature Simulated from the Preindustrial Era to the Present Day
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esults from the simulation of a coupled chemistry?climate model are presented for the period 1860 to 2005 using the observed greenhouse gas (GHG) and halocarbon concentrations. The model is coupled to a simulated ocean and ...
The Response of the Stratospheric Climate to Projected Changes in the Concentrations of Well-Mixed Greenhouse Gases from 1992 to 2051
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results are presented from two 60-yr integrations of the troposphere?stratosphere configuration of the U.K. Met. Office?s Unified Model. The integrations were set up identically, apart from different initial conditions, ...
The Dynamical Core, Physical Parameterizations, and Basic Simulation Characteristics of the Atmospheric Component AM3 of the GFDL Global Coupled Model CM3
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) has developed a coupled general circulation model (CM3) for the atmosphere, oceans, land, and sea ice. The goal of CM3 is to address emerging issues in climate change, including ...
