RISEvaluation of a CCSM3 Simulation with a Finite Volume Dynamical Core for the Atmosphere at 1° Latitude × 1.25° Longitude Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simulation of the present-day climate by the Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) that uses a Finite Volume (FV) numerical method for solving the equations governing the atmospheric dynamics is presented. The ...
High-Frequency Planetary Waves in the Polar Middle Atmosphere as Seen in a Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 4-day wave often dominates the large-scale wind, temperature, and constituent variability in the high-latitude Southern Hemisphere winter near the stratopause. This study examines the winter Southern Hemisphere vortex ...
Upper-Tropospheric Water Vapor from UARS MLS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Initial results of upper-tropospheric water vapor obtained from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) are presented. MLS is less affected by clouds than infrared or visible ...
The GCM–Reality Intercomparison Project for SPARC (GRIPS): Scientific Issues and Initial Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To investigate the effects of the middle atmosphere on climate, the World Climate Research Programme is supporting the project "Stratospheric Processes and their Role in Climate" (SPARC). A central theme of SPARC, to examine ...
