Abstract: A numerical model of planetary-scale waves in Venus? atmosphere is used to simulate observed wave-like cloud features such as the dark horizontal Y. The model is based on the linearized primitive equations. Observed ...

Abstract: A linearized planetary scale wave model is used to investigate the effects of thermal and mechanical damping on atmospheric tides. When the damping rate ? is comparable to the frequency of solar diurnal forcing &Omega ...

Abstract: Although atmospheric tides driven by solar heating are readily detectable at the earth?s surface as variations in air pressure, their simulations in current coupled global climate models have not been fully examined. This ...

Abstract: or atmospheric tides driven by solar heating, the database of climate model output used in the most recent assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirms and extends the authors? earlier ...

Abstract: The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) involves study and intercomparison of multi-model simulations of present and future climate. The simulations of the future use idealized forcing in increase is compounded ...

Abstract: The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) was established to study and intercompare climate simulations made with coupled ocean?atmosphere?cryosphere?land GCMs. There are two main phases (CMIP1 and CMIP2), which ...

Abstract: etrics are proposed?that is, a few summary statistics that condense large amounts of data from observations or model simulations?encapsulating the diurnal cycle of precipitation. Vector area averaging of Fourier amplitude ...

Abstract: A coordinated set of global coupled climate model [atmosphere?ocean general circulation model (AOGCM)] experiments for twentieth- and twenty-first-century climate, as well as several climate change commitment and other ...
