Abstract: A coupled atmosphere?ice regional model previously used for simulations in the Arctic has been implemented in the Antarctic. Three 14-month simulations were performed for 1988?89, with different oceanic specifications. The ...

Abstract: In this, the second part of the analysis of an Antarctic regional climate system model, the model results and analyses are compared to a series of observational data from automated weather stations at a number of Antarctic ...

Abstract: he authors summarize the twenty-first-century Arctic climate simulated by NCAR?s Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4). Under a strong radiative forcing scenario, the model simulates a much warmer, wetter, ...

Abstract: he Community Climate System Model, version 4 has revisions across all components. For sea ice, the most notable improvements are the incorporation of a new shortwave radiative transfer scheme and the capabilities that this ...

Abstract: he low-resolution version of the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) is a computationally efficient alternative to the intermediate and standard resolution versions of this fully coupled climate system model. ...

Abstract: he equilibrium solution of a fully coupled general circulation model with present-day orbital forcing is compared to the solution of the same model with the orbital forcing from 115 000 years ago. The difference in snow ...

Abstract: o establish how well the new Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) simulates the properties of the Arctic sea ice and ocean, results from six CCSM4 twentieth-century ensemble simulations are compared here with ...
