RISA Comparison of Climate Feedback Strength between CO2 Doubling and LGM Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Studies of the climate in the past potentially provide a constraint on the uncertainty of climate sensitivity, but previous studies warn against a simple scaling to the future. Climate sensitivity is determined by a number ...
Impact of Strong Tropical Volcanic Eruptions on ENSO Simulated in a Coupled GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impact of strong tropical volcanic eruptions (SVEs) on the El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and its phase dependency is investigated using a coupled general circulation model (CGCM). This paper investigates the ...
Evaluation of the Warm Rain Formation Process in Global Models with Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the warm rain formation process over the global ocean in global climate models. Methodologies developed to analyze CloudSat and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite observations ...
Dependency of Feedbacks on Forcing and Climate State in Physics Parameter Ensembles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate sensitivity is one of the most important metrics for future climate projections. In previous studies the climate of the last glacial maximum has been used to constrain the range of climate sensitivity, and similarities ...
Global Monsoon, El Niño, and Their Interannual Linkage Simulated by MIROC5 and the CMIP3 CGCMs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study evaluates the capability of coupled global climate models (CGCMs) in simulating the prime examples of the forced response (global monsoon) and internal feedback process (El Niño). Emphases are also placed on the ...
Structural Similarities and Differences in Climate Responses to CO2 Increase between Two Perturbed Physics Ensembles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) of the two perturbed physics ensembles (PPE) generated using structurally different GCMs, Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate (MIROC3.2) and the Third Hadley Centre ...
Dependence of Precipitation Scaling Patterns on Emission Scenarios for Representative Concentration Pathways
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: attern scaling is an efficient way to generate projections of regional climate change for various emission scenarios. This approach assumes that the spatial pattern of changes per degree of global warming (scaling pattern) ...
Using a Multiphysics Ensemble for Exploring Diversity in Cloud–Shortwave Feedback in GCMs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study proposes a systematic approach to investigate cloud-radiative feedbacks to climate change induced by an increase of CO2 concentrations in global climate models (GCMs). Based on two versions of the Model for ...
Validation of a Pattern Scaling Approach for Determining the Maximum Available Renewable Freshwater Resource
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: pattern scaling approach allows projection of regional climate changes under a wide range of emission scenarios. A basic assumption of this approach is that the spatial response pattern to global warming (scaling pattern) ...
Improved Climate Simulation by MIROC5: Mean States, Variability, and Climate Sensitivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new version of the atmosphere?ocean general circulation model cooperatively produced by the Japanese research community, known as the Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate (MIROC), has recently been developed. ...
