A Chemical Model of the Troposphere and Stratosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A time-dependent, one-dimensional model of the coupled chemistry and vertical mixing of the atmosphere is used to compute the distribution for many atmospheric constituents of the troposphere and stratosphere. The model ...
Similarity Theory of the Buoyantly Interactive Planetary Boundary Layer with Entrainment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A similarity model is developed for the vertical profiles of turbulent flow variables in an entraining turbulent boundary layer of arbitrary buoyant stability. In the general formulation the vertical profiles, internal ...
Effects of Subgrid-Scale Mixing Parameterizations on Simulated Distributions of Natural 14C, Temperature, and Salinity in a Three-Dimensional Ocean General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of parameterizations of subgrid-scale mixing on simulated distributions of natural 14C, temperature, and salinity in a three-dimensional ocean general circulation model are examined. The parameterizations studied ...
Evaporation-Limited Tropical Temperatures as a Constraint on Climate Sensitivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Studies of paleoclimate and modern observations indicate that evaporative effects limit thermal response in equatorial regions. We develop a latitude-resolved, steady-state energy balance model which incorporates the effect ...
