The General Circulation in a Dissipative Ocean Basin with Longshore Wind Stresses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Solutions of the Stommel equation are presented which take the form of free waves in the interior of the ocean basin, driven by convergences and divergences in coastal transports brought about by the variation of the ...
Atmosphere–Ocean Momentum Exchange in General Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of two-layer quasigeostrophic solutions for the ocean circulation driven by a steady wind in a channel with topography and in a flat bottom rectangular basin are presented in which the atmosphere and ocean are ...
Identification and Climatology of Southern Hemisphere Mobile Fronts in a Modern Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: resented here is an objective approach to identify, characterize, and track Southern Hemisphere mobile fronts in hemispheric analyses of relatively modest resolution, such as reanalyses. Among the principles in its design ...
Tropical Transition of the 2001 Australian Duck
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In March 2001, a hybrid low pressure system, unofficially referred to as Donald (or the Duck), developed in the Tasman Sea under tropical?extratropical influence, making landfall on the southeastern Australian coast. Here, ...
Statistical Structure of Intrinsic Climate Variability under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate variability is often studied in terms of fluctuations with respect to the mean state, whereas the dependence between the mean and variability is rarely discussed. Here, a new climate metric is proposed to measure ...
Climate: The Elements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors present an analytical climate model, which has the features that (i) the atmosphere is a simple oscillator for all periods ≤1 year, (ii) the ocean stores heat, (iii) the ocean exchanges momentum with the ...
