An Urban Parameterization for a Global Climate Model. Part II: Sensitivity to Input Parameters and the Simulated Urban Heat Island in Offline Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a companion paper, the authors presented a formulation and evaluation of an urban parameterization designed to represent the urban energy balance in the Community Land Model. Here the robustness of the model is tested ...
An Urban Parameterization for a Global Climate Model. Part I: Formulation and Evaluation for Two Cities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Urbanization, the expansion of built-up areas, is an important yet less-studied aspect of land use/land cover change in climate science. To date, most global climate models used to evaluate effects of land use/land cover ...
The Community Earth System Model (CESM) Large Ensemble Project: A Community Resource for Studying Climate Change in the Presence of Internal Climate Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hile internal climate variability is known to affect climate projections, its influence is often underappreciated and confused with model error. Why? In general, modeling centers contribute a small number of realizations ...
The Community Earth System Model: A Framework for Collaborative Research
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nity Earth System Model (CESM) is a flexible and extensible community tool used to investigate a diverse set of Earth system interactions across multiple time and space scales. This global coupled model significantly extends ...
The Earth System Prediction Suite: Toward a Coordinated U.S. Modeling Capability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Earth System Prediction Suite (ESPS) is a collection of flagship U.S. weather and climate models and model components that are being instrumented to conform to interoperability conventions, documented to follow metadata ...
