Effect of the Missing Indonesian Throughflow in the Fine Resolution Antarctic Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: South of Tasmania, the Fine Resolution Antarctic Model (FRAM) shows a narrow band of westward flow in the surface layer. The authors argue that this is caused by the closure of the Indonesian passage in FRAM. This is ...
Antarctic Intermediate Water Mass Formation in Ocean General Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Antarctic Intermediate Water is formed at the high midlatitudes of the Southern Ocean. In many ocean general circulation model simulations with coarse resolution and a z coordinate, a middepth salinity minimum characteristic ...
Are Anthropogenic Aerosols Responsible for the Northwest Australia Summer Rainfall Increase? A CMIP3 Perspective and Implications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: evere rainfall deficiencies have plagued southern and eastern Australian regions over the past decades, where the long-term rainfall is projected to decrease. By contrast, there has been an increase over northwest Australia ...
Variability and Trend of North West Australia Rainfall: Observations and Coupled Climate Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Since 1950, there has been an increase in rainfall over North West Australia (NWA), occurring mainly during the Southern Hemisphere (SH) summer season. A recent study using twentieth-century multimember ensemble simulations ...
