Abstract: adiative feedbacks influence Earth's climate response to orbital forcing, amplifying some aspects of the response while damping others. To better understand this relationship, the GFDL Climate Model, version 2.1 (CM2.1), ...

Abstract: he long-term climate variations of the Quaternary were primarily influenced by concurrent changes in Earth?s orbit, greenhouse gases, and ice sheets. However, because climate changes over the coming century will largely ...

Abstract: he response of the Northern Hemisphere summer anticyclones to a change in the timing of perihelion is investigated using the GFDL Climate Model version 2.1 (CM2.1). The orbital forcing consists of changes in the seasonal ...

Abstract: he feedbacks involved in the response of climate to a reduction of Earth?s obliquity are investigated in the GFDL Climate Model version 2.1 (CM2.1). A reduction in obliquity increases the meridional gradient of the annual ...

Abstract: he inter- and intrahemispheric climate responses to a change in obliquity are investigated using the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Climate Model, version 2.1. (GFDL CM2.1). Reduced obliquity causes a weakening of ...

Abstract: he response of the equatorial Pacific Ocean?s seasonal cycle to orbital forcing is explored using idealized simulations with a coupled atmosphere?ocean GCM in which eccentricity, obliquity, and the longitude of perihelion ...
