RISUsing Initialized Hindcasts to Assess Simulations of 1970–2009 Equatorial Pacific SST, Zonal Wind Stress, and Surface Flux Trends
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nitialized decadal hindcasts are used to assess simulations of 1970?2009 equatorial Pacific SST, zonal wind stress, and surface flux trends. Initialized hindcasts are useful to assess how well the models simulate observed ...

An Observational Study of the Spatial and Temporal Scales of Transient Eddy Sensible Heat Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The preferred spatial and temporal scales of transient baroclinic waves that are responsible for the transport of sensible heat in midlatitudes are evaluated as a function of pressure, season, and hemisphere. The 7-level ...
The Sensitivity of an Intermediate Model of the Midlatitude Troposphere's Equilibrium to Changes in Radiative Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sensitivity of the equilibrated state of a dry high-resolution quasigeostrophic ?-plane channel model, coupled to both a simplified model of the atmospheric boundary layer and an interactive static stability, to changes ...
The Impact of Resolution on a Numerical Simulation of Barotropic Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The barotropic point jet problem is used to study the impact of resolution on a numerical simulation of barotropic instability. This particular problem is studied because of the close relation of the linearized version of ...
A Study of the Impact of Off-Equatorial Warm Pool SST Anomalies on ENSO Cycles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Concurrent with most large El Niño events, cold sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies are observed over the western Pacific warm pool region (WPWP). Observational evidence that SST anomalies that form in the off-equatorial ...
Equilibration in an Eddy Resolving Model with Simplified Physics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The role of waves in maintaining the midlatitude tropospheric climate is investigated in a dry high-resolution quasigeostrophic ?-plane channel model coupled to both a simplified model of the atmospheric boundary layer and ...
Implications of Global Atmospheric Spatial Spectra for Processing and Displaying Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The information available on different scales in the atmosphere for a number of different variables is explored using the global ECMWF analyses by examining the spatial spectra at T106 resolution. In most atmospheric ...
The Role of Boundary Layer Processes in Limiting PV Homogenization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A ?-plane multilevel quasigeostrophic channel model with interactive static stability and a simplified parameterization of atmospheric boundary layer physics is used to study the role of different boundary layer processes ...
Cloud–Atmospheric Boundary Layer–Surface Interactions on the Greenland Ice Sheet during the July 2012 Extreme Melt Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractRegional model simulations of the 10?13 July 2012 extreme melt event over the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) are used to investigate how low-level liquid-bearing clouds impact surface energy fluxes, and therefore the ...
