The Use of Mean Atmospheric Parameters in the Calculation of Modeled Mean Surface Heat Fluxes over the World's Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are a number of atlases that display the distribution of ocean-atmosphere sensible and latent heat fluxes over various regions. Many are based on the ?classical? method, in which time mean quantities are used in the ...
Systematic Energy Errors and the Tendency toward Canonical Equilibrium in Atmospheric Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Systematic kinetic energy errors are examined in barotropic and multilevel general circulation models. The dependence of energy spectra on resolution and dissipation and, in addition for the barotropic model, on topography ...
Variability and Trend of North West Australia Rainfall: Observations and Coupled Climate Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Since 1950, there has been an increase in rainfall over North West Australia (NWA), occurring mainly during the Southern Hemisphere (SH) summer season. A recent study using twentieth-century multimember ensemble simulations ...
