The Equilibration of Short Baroclinic Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The life cycles of short baroclinic waves are investigated with the intention of completing a simple classification of nonlinear equilibration scenarios. Short waves become important in moist environments as latent heating ...
Resolving Convection in a Global Hypohydrostatic Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Convection cannot be explicitly resolved in general circulation models given their typical grid size of 50 km or larger. However, by multiplying the vertical acceleration in the equation of motion by a constant larger than ...
