Abstract: In order to represent in a most adequate way the various feedback mechanisms that govern the atmosphere?ocean or atmosphere?surface couplings, a ?delocalized physics? method is introduced, in which the subgrid-scale physical ...

Abstract: To take into account the strong nonlinearities of vertical fluxes due to small-scale heterogeneities of surface properties, more and more coupled general circulation models compute part of their atmospheric physical ...

Abstract: his study introduces a nonlinear clustering technique based on a self-organizing map (SOM) algorithm to identify horizontal and vertical structures of the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) through its life cycle. The SOM ...

Abstract: This study examines the response of the climate simulated by the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace tropical Pacific coupled general circulation model to two changes in parameterization: an improved coupling scheme at the coast, ...

Abstract: series of 60-day hindcasts by the Climate Forecast System (CFS) of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction is analyzed to understand the impacts of atmospheric model resolutions and initial conditions on predictions ...

Abstract: n international field campaign, Dynamics of the Madden Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO), took place in the Indian Ocean during October 2011?March 2012 to collect observations for the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO), especially ...
