Abstract: Prescribing sea surface temperature (SST) for the atmospheric general circulation models (GCM) may not lead to underestimation of the coupled variability. In this study, a set of SST-driven atmospheric GCM experiments, ...

Abstract: A statistical method is developed to assess the full climate feedback of nonlocal climate feedbacks. The method is a multivariate generalization of the univariate equilibrium feedback assessment (EFA) method of Frankignoul ...

Abstract: The atmospheric response to a North Pacific subsurface oceanic temperature anomaly is studied in a coupled ocean?atmosphere general circulation model using a combined dynamical and statistical approach, with the focus on ...

Abstract: his paper studies a new leading averaged coupled covariance (LACC) method for the strongly coupled data assimilation (SCDA). The SCDA not only uses the coupled model to generate the forecast and assimilate observations ...

Abstract: In this study, a simplified mechanical model is proposed based on the failure characteristics of a gypsum pillar–roof system obtained through in situ investigation. Then, a cusp catastrophe model for the gypsum pillar–roof ...

Abstract: ecause of the geographic dependence of model sensitivities and observing systems, allowing optimized parameter values to vary geographically may significantly enhance the signal in parameter estimation. Using an intermediate ...

Abstract: The molten salt has been widely used in concentrated solar power generation as an effective high-temperature heat transfer and heat storage working fluid. However, due to the concentrating characteristic of the tower ...
