Modeling Radiative–Convective Panels for Nighttime Passive Cooling Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Passive cooling by combined radiation–convection from black panels at night is a potential source of significant energy-efficient cooling for both homes and industry. Assessing the technology requires system models that ...
Metrics and Diagnostics for Precipitation-Related Processes in Climate Model Short-Range Hindcasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, several metrics and diagnostics are proposed and implemented to systematically explore and diagnose climate model biases in short-range hindcasts and quantify how fast hindcast biases approach to climate ...
The Transpose-AMIP II Experiment and Its Application to the Understanding of Southern Ocean Cloud Biases in Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Transpose-Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP) is an international model intercomparison project in which climate models are run in ?weather forecast mode.? The Transpose-AMIP II experiment is run alongside ...
On the Correspondence between Mean Forecast Errors and Climate Errors in CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he present study examines the correspondence between short- and long-term systematic errors in five atmospheric models by comparing the 16 five-day hindcast ensembles from the Transpose Atmospheric Model Intercomparison ...
Exposing Global Cloud Biases in the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) Using Satellite Observations and Their Corresponding Instrument Simulators
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atellite observations and their corresponding instrument simulators are used to document global cloud biases in the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) versions 4 and 5. The model?observation comparisons show that, despite ...
Radiative and Dynamical Feedbacks over the Equatorial Cold Tongue: Results from Nine Atmospheric GCMs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The equatorial Pacific is a region with strong negative feedbacks. Yet coupled general circulation models (GCMs) have exhibited a propensity to develop a significant SST bias in that region, suggesting an unrealistic ...
COSP: Satellite simulation software for model assessment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: the simulation of clouds in general circulation models (GCMs) remain a long-standing issue in climate projections, as discussed in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report. This highlights ...
Uncertainty in Signals of Large-Scale Climate Variations in Radiosonde and Satellite Upper-Air Temperature Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There is no single reference dataset of long-term global upper-air temperature observations, although several groups have developed datasets from radiosonde and satellite observations for climate-monitoring purposes. The ...
