RISThe GISS Global Climate-Middle Atmosphere Model. Part II. Model Variability Due to Interactions between Planetary Waves, the Mean Circulation and Gravity Wave Drag
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The variability which arises in the GISS Global Climate-Middle Atmosphere Model on two time scales is reviewed: interannual standard deviations, derived from the five-year control run, and intraseasonal variability as ...
Climate Change and the Middle Atmosphere. Part II: The Impact of Volcanic Aerosols
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of volcanic aerosols on the middle atmosphere are investigated with the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Global Climate/Middle Atmosphere model. Volcanic aerosols with a visible optical depth of 0.15 ...
Climate Change and the Middle Atmosphere. Part I: The Doubled CO2 Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of doubled atmospheric CO2 on the climate of the middle atmosphere is investigated using the GISS global climate/middle atmosphere model. In the standard experiment, the CO2 concentration is doubled both in the ...
The GISS Global Climate-Middle Atmosphere Model. Part I: Model Structure and Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The GISS global climate model (Hansen et al.) has been extended to include the middle atmosphere up to an altitude of approximately 85 km. The model has the full array of processes used for climate research, i.e., numerical ...
