An Observing System Simulation Experiment for the Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An integrated in situ Indian Ocean observing system (IndOOS) is simulated using a high-resolution ocean general circulation model (OGCM) with daily mean forcing, including an estimate of subdaily oceanic variability derived ...
A Study of ENSO Prediction Using a Hybrid Coupled Model and the Adjoint Method for Data Assimilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An experimental ENSO prediction system is presented, based on an ocean general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a statistical atmosphere and the adjoint method of 4D variational data assimilation. The adjoint method is ...
The Equatorial Thermocline Outcropping—A Seasonal Control on the Tropical Pacific Ocean–Atmosphere Instability Strength
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: One of the major factors determining the strength and extent of ENSO events is the instability state of the equatorial Pacific coupled ocean?atmosphere system and its seasonal variations. This study analyzes the coupled ...
Impacts of Shortwave Penetration Depth on Large-Scale Ocean Circulation and Heat Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of changes in shortwave radiation penetration depth on the global ocean circulation and heat transport is studied using the GFDL Modular Ocean Model (MOM4) with two independent parameterizations that use ocean ...
Comparison and Sensitivity of ODASI Ocean Analyses in the Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two global ocean analyses from 1993 to 2001 have been generated by the Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), as part of the Ocean Data Assimilation for ...
Seasonal Prediction and Predictability of Regional Antarctic Sea Ice
Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: he physical climate formulation and simulation characteristics of two new global coupled carbon?climate Earth System Models, ESM2M and ESM2G, are described. These models demonstrate similar climate fidelity as the Geophysical ...
GFDL's CM2 Global Coupled Climate Models. Part II: The Baseline Ocean Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The current generation of coupled climate models run at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) as part of the Climate Change Science Program contains ocean components that differ in almost every respect from those ...
GFDL's CM2 Global Coupled Climate Models. Part I: Formulation and Simulation Characteristics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The formulation and simulation characteristics of two new global coupled climate models developed at NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) are described. The models were designed to simulate atmospheric and ...
