The Southern Oscillation Revisited: Sea Level Pressures, Surface Temperatures, and Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An update is given of the global correlation and regression patterns of sea level pressure associated with the Southern Oscillation, based upon the reanalyses from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National ...
Estimates of Meridional Atmosphere and Ocean Heat Transports
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: New estimates of the poleward energy transport based on atmospheric reanalyses from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP?NCAR) and the European Centre for ...
Accuracy of Atmospheric Energy Budgets from Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Issues relevant to achieving an accuracy of better than 10 W m?2 on 250-km scales for monthly means in the atmospheric energy balance are explored from the standpoint of the formulation and computational procedures using ...
On Using Global Climate Model Simulations to Assess the Accuracy of MSU Retrieval Methods for Tropospheric Warming Trends
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Climate model simulations of the latter part of the twentieth century indicate a warming of the troposphere that is equal to or larger than the warming at the surface, while satellite observations from the Microwave Sounding ...
The Global Monsoon as Seen through the Divergent Atmospheric Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive description is given of the global monsoon as seen through the large-scale overturning in the atmosphere that changes with the seasons, and it provides a basis for delimiting the monsoon regions of the ...
A New Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Ice Boundary Dataset for the Community Atmosphere Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new surface boundary forcing dataset for uncoupled simulations with the Community Atmosphere Model is described. It is a merged product based on the monthly mean Hadley Centre sea ice and SST dataset version 1 (HadISST1) ...
CCSM–CAM3 Climate Simulation Sensitivity to Changes in Horizontal Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The latest version of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) Community Atmosphere Model version 3 (CAM3) has been released to allow for numerical integration at a variety of horizontal resolutions. One goal of the CAM3 ...
Monsoon Regimes and Processes in CCSM4. Part I: The Asian–Australian Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he simulation characteristics of the Asian?Australian monsoon are documented for the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4). This is the first part of a two part series examining monsoon regimes in the global ...
Exploratory High-Resolution Climate Simulations using the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtended, high-resolution (0.23° latitude ? 0.31° longitude) simulations with Community Atmosphere Model versions 4 and 5 (CAM4 and CAM5) are examined and compared with results from climate simulations conducted at a more ...
Simulation of the Global Hydrological Cycle in the CCSM Community Atmosphere Model Version 3 (CAM3): Mean Features
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The seasonal and annual climatological behavior of selected components of the hydrological cycle are presented from coupled and uncoupled configurations of the atmospheric component of the Community Climate System Model ...
