RISEvaluation of Near-Surface Parameters in the Two Versions of the Atmospheric Model in CESM1 using Flux Station Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper describes the performance of the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) versions 4 and 5 in simulating near-surface parameters. CAM is the atmospheric component of the Community Earth System Model (CESM). Most of the ...
The Accuracy of Determining Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Effects in Cumulus Clouds Using Ground-Based Profiling Instruments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three-dimensional radiative transfer calculations are accurate, though computationally expensive, if the spatial distribution of cloud properties is known. The difference between these calculations and those using the much ...
Virtual Field Campaigns on Deep Tropical Convection in Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution time?height data over warm tropical oceans are examined, from three global atmosphere models [GFDL?s Atmosphere Model 2 (AM2), NCAR?s Community Atmosphere Model, version 3 (CAM3), and a NASA Global Modeling ...
Southeast Pacific Stratocumulus in the Community Atmosphere Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: orecasts of October 2006 are used to investigate southeast Pacific stratocumulus in the Community Atmosphere Model, versions 4 and 5 (CAM4 and CAM5). Both models quickly develop biases similar to their climatic biases, ...
The Role of Clouds in Modulating Global Aerosol Direct Radiative Effects in Spaceborne Active Observations and the Community Earth System Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservational benchmarks of global and regional aerosol direct radiative effects, over all surfaces and all sky conditions, are generated using CloudSat?s new multisensor radiative fluxes and heating rates product. Improving ...
Evaluation of Forecasted Southeast Pacific Stratocumulus in the NCAR, GFDL, and ECMWF Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Forecasts of southeast Pacific stratocumulus at 20°S and 85°W during the East Pacific Investigation of Climate (EPIC) cruise of October 2001 are examined with the ECMWF model, the Atmospheric Model (AM) from GFDL, the ...
Exploratory High-Resolution Climate Simulations using the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtended, high-resolution (0.23° latitude ? 0.31° longitude) simulations with Community Atmosphere Model versions 4 and 5 (CAM4 and CAM5) are examined and compared with results from climate simulations conducted at a more ...
Clouds, Aerosols, and Precipitation in the Marine Boundary Layer: An Arm Mobile Facility Deployment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Clouds, Aerosol, and Precipitation in the Marine Boundary Layer (CAP-MBL) deployment at Graciosa Island in the Azores generated a 21-month (April 2009?December 2010) comprehensive dataset documenting clouds, aerosols, ...
