RISExtraction of Mixed Layer Advection Velocities, Diffusion Coefficients, Feedback Factors and Atmospheric Forcing Parameters from the Statistical Analysis of North Pacific SST Anomaly Fields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The statistical properties of observed North Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies are simulated by a simple mixed layer advection and diffusion model with stabilizing feedback and local stochastic forcing by the ...
The Horizontal Diffusion of Tracers by Surface Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The horizontal dispersion of tracers in the presence of a random field of ocean surface waves is examined. Random fluctuations in the local Stokes-drift current cause a water particle to follow a random-walk path. The ...
Intercomparison of Simulated Global Vegetation Distributions in Response to 6 kyr BP Orbital Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The response of ten atmospheric general circulation models to orbital forcing at 6 kyr BP has been investigated using the BIOME model, which predicts equilibrium vegetation distribution, as a diagnostic. Several common ...
