The Sensitivity of Global Climate Model Simulations to the Representation of Soil Moisture Heterogeneity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Improving the treatment of subgrid-scale soil moisture variations is recognized as a priority for the next generation of land surface schemes. Here, the impact of an improved representation of subgrid-scale soil moisture ...
Characterizing GCM Land Surface Schemes to Understand Their Responses to Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of land surface representation on GCM simulations of climate change is analyzed using eight climate change experiments, carried out with four GCMs each utilizing two different land surface schemes (LSSs). In the ...
Impact of an Eddy-Permitting Ocean Resolution on Control and Climate Change Simulations with a Global Coupled GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Initial results are presented from a 150-yr control and an 80-yr transient simulation of a new global coupled climate model with an ocean model resolution of ?°, which is sufficient to permit ocean eddies to form. With no ...
The Representation of Snow in Land Surface Schemes: Results from PILPS 2(d)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Twenty-one land surface schemes (LSSs) performed simulations forced by 18 yr of observed meteorological data from a grassland catchment at Valdai, Russia, as part of the Project for the Intercomparison of Land-Surface ...
Cabauw Experimental Results from the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes phase 2a experiment, meteorological data for the year 1987 from Cabauw, the Netherlands, were used as inputs to 23 land-surface flux schemes ...
Sensitivity of Latent Heat Flux from PILPS Land-Surface Schemes to Perturbations of Surface Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the PILPS Phase 2a experiment, 23 land-surface schemes were compared in an off-line control experiment using observed meteorological data from Cabauw, the Netherlands. Two simple sensitivity experiments were also ...
