Abstract: Within the framework of a quasi-geostrophic model, the influence of different kinds of vertical profiles of diabatic heating on a stationary harmonic of the atmosphere is studied. Except in the cases in which there is a ...

Abstract: A finite difference procedure is utilized for the solution of a coupled system of two ordinary differential equations governing the time averaged quasi-geostrophic perturbations in the atmosphere. The seasonal changes in ...

Abstract: Two smoothing techniques are tested as a practical means of allowing a larger time step in the numerical integration of a primitive equation free-surface model. The numerical integration uses a finite-difference grid and ...

Abstract: In this work, the interannual variability of the Asian summer monsoon is studied by analyzing outputs of the Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project integration using the Goddard Laboratory for Atmospheres general ...
