RISModes of North Atlantic Decadal Variability in the ECHAM1/LSG Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The climate variability in the North Atlantic sector is investigated in a 325-yr integration of the ECHAM1/ LSG coupled ocean?atmosphere general circulation model. At the interannual timescale, the coupled model behaves ...
The Analog Method as a Simple Statistical Downscaling Technique: Comparison with More Complicated Methods
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The derivation of local scale information from integrations of coarse-resolution general circulation models (GCM) with the help of statistical models fitted to present observations is generally referred to as statistical ...
A Simple Model of the Decadal Response of the Ocean to Stochastic Wind Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple linear model is used to estimate the decadal response of the extratropical ocean to wind stress forcing, assuming a flat bottom, a mean state at rest, and no dissipation. The barotropic fields are governed by a ...
Testing the Approach to Paleoclimate Reconstructions in the Context of a 1000-Yr Control Simulation with the ECHO-G Coupled Climate Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistical reconstructions of past climate variability based on climate indicators face several uncertainties: for instance, to what extent is the network of available proxy indicators dense enough for a meaningful ...
Downscaling of Global Climate Change Estimates to Regional Scales: An Application to Iberian Rainfall in Wintertime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A statistical strategy to deduct regional-scale features from climate general circulation model (GCM) simulations has been designed and tested. The main idea is to interrelate the characteristic patterns of observed ...
The Atmospheric Circulation and Sea Surface Temperature in the North Atlantic Area in Winter: Their Interaction and Relevance for Iberian Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ocean surface-atmosphere relationships in the North Atlantic area in northern winter are empirically examined by canonical correlation analysis (CCA). This analysis is performed from two different points of view. First, ...
Estimation of Precipitation by Kriging in the EOF Space of theSea Level Pressure Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The term downscaling denotes a procedure in which local climatic information is derived from large-scale climate parameters. In this paper, the possibility of using as downscaling procedure a geostatistical interpolation ...
Comments on “Testing the Fidelity of Methods Used in Proxy-Based Reconstructions of Past Climate”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mann et el. found that a version of the Regularized Expectation Maximization (RegEM) method to reconstruct the temperatures of the last millennium showed similar results to previous reconstructions in one of their earlier ...
Statistical Seasonal Prediction of European Summer Mean Temperature Using Observational, Reanalysis, and Satellite Data

Centennial Variations of the Global Monsoon Precipitation in the Last Millennium: Results from ECHO-G Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors investigate how the global monsoon (GM) precipitation responds to the external and anthropogenic forcing in the last millennium by analyzing a pair of control and forced millennium simulations with the ECHAM ...
