Surface Energy Fluxes and Coupled Variability in the Tropics of a Coupled General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of wind-evaporative feedbacks upon ENSO, and the coupling of Pacific and Indian Ocean variability, is considered based upon a 110-yr simulation from a coupled ocean and atmosphere general circulation model. ...
The Vertical Structure of Radiative Heating Rates: A Multimodel Evaluation Using A-Train Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We assess the vertical distribution of radiative heating rates (RHRs) in climate models using a multimodel experiment and A-Train satellite observations, for the first time. As RHRs rely on the representation of cloud ...
TRMM Latent Heating Retrieval: Applications and Comparisons with Field Campaigns and Large-Scale Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: anai and coauthors utilized the meteorological data collected from a sounding network to present a pioneering work in 1973 on thermodynamic budgets, which are referred to as the apparent heat source (Q1) and apparent ...
