RISThe Global Hydrologic and Energy Cycles: Suggestions for Studies in the Pre-Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Period
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Given the importance of a quantitative understanding of the way in which water and energy are moved from place to place and from component to component of the earth's climate system, it is necessary to obtain reliable ...
Crucial Experiments in Climate Science
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This article discusses the interplay between computational experiments and scientific advancement in dynamical meteorology and climate dynamics. In doing so, the emphasis is on the dual role of computations in prediction ...
Recent Change in the Connection from the Asian Monsoon to ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Asian monsoon and El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) are known to interact with each other. In this paper, four primary indices (the Indian monsoon rainfall index, the Webster and Yang monsoon index, the tropical-wide ...
Climatic Feedbacks during the 2003 European Heat Wave
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uring the summer of 2003, a record heat wave over Europe occurred, to which the deaths of over 20 000 people in 18 countries were attributed, 10 000 of those in France alone. Temperatures across Europe were above normal ...
Relationship between Prediction Skill of Surface Winds in Average of Weeks 1–4 and Interannual Variability over the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Simulation of the Winter and Summer Circulations with the NMC Global Spectral Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The medium range forecast model of the National Meteorological Center (NMC) has been integrated to produce winter and summer simulations. For the winter simulation, the model was initialized with the NMC analysis of 1200 ...
A Simplified Biosphere Model for Global Climate Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Simple Biosphere Model (SiB) as described in Sellers et al. is a bio-physically based model of land surface-atmosphere interaction. For some general circulation model (GCM) climate studies, further simplifications are ...
An Evaluation of the Apparent Interdecadal Shift in the Tropical Divergent Circulation in the NCEP–NCAR Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent decadal regime shifts in the large-scale circulation of the tropical atmosphere are examined using analyses and independent observations of the circulation and precipitation. Comparisons between reanalysis products ...
Discrepancy of Interdecadal Changes in the Asian Region among the NCEP–NCAR Reanalysis, Objective Analyses, and Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study compares decadal means and interdecadal changes of surface and sea level pressures, tropospheric heights, and winds in the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National Center for Atmospheric Research ...
A Comparison of Climate Prediction and Simulation over the Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study compares an ensemble of seasonal hindcasts with a multidecadal integration from the same global coupled climate model over the tropical Pacific Ocean. It is shown that the annual mean state of the SST and its ...
