A Reformulation and Implementation of the Bryan-Cox-Semtner Ocean Model on the Connection Machine
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Certain aspects of the Semtner-Chervin version of the Bryan-Cox-Semtner global ocean model are reformulated for improved efficiency on parallel computer architectures and on the Connection Machine CM-2 in particular. These ...
The Simulation of Stationary and Transient Geopotential-Height Eddies in January and July with a Spectral General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We examine the characteristics of stationary and transient eddies in the geopotential-height field as simulated by a spectral general circulation model. The model possesses a realistic distribution of continents and oceans ...
The Response of a Spectral General Circulation Model to Refinements in Radiative Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present here results and analyses of a series of numerical experiments performed with a spectral general circulation model (GCM). The purpose of the GCM experiments is to examine the role of radiation/cloud processes ...
January and July Simulations with a Spectral General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We describe the results of January and July simulations carded out with a nine-level spectral model, employing a rhomboidal truncation at wavenumber 15. Sea-surface temperature, sea-ice distribution and solar zenith angle ...
