Anomaly General Circulation Models

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1988
Abstract Anomally models based on a spectral general circulation model (GCM) are formulated and applied to study of low-frequency atmospheric variability in the extratropics, and long-range forecasting research. A steady linear version of the anomaly model is treated by a matrix method.

Atmospheric General Circulation Modeling

2012
This entry provides a brief introduction to the computer models of the atmosphere used for climate studies. The concepts of atmospheric forcing and response are developed and used to highlight the importance of clouds and aerosols to the climate system and the many uncertainties associated with their representation.

Parallel ocean general circulation modeling

Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 1992
We have developed a global ocean model on the massively parallel CM-2 Connection Machine based on the Bryan-Cox-Semtner ocean general circulation model. This paper discusses the Connection Machine implementation of the model and its performance, as well as major changes that were made in the algorithm and numerical methods.

NAO–ocean circulation interactions in a coupled general circulation model

Climate Dynamics, 2008
The interplay between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the large scale ocean circulation is inspected in a twentieth century simulation conducted with a state-of-the-art coupled general circulation model. Significant lead–lag covariance between oceanic and tropospheric variables suggests that the system supports a damped oscillatory mode ...

Weather Regimes in a General Circulation Model

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1990
Abstract Perpetual January and July simulations each 1200 days long of the NCAR Community Climate Model (CCM0B) are investigated for the existence of large scale, midlatitude weather regimes. Four realizations of the midlatitude circulation were considered: Northern Hemisphere (NH) winter, Northern Hemisphere summer, Southern Hemisphere (SH) winter ...

Oceanic General Circulation Models

1998
The practice of oceanic numerical modeling is growing rapidly. Among the reasons for this are the following: a widespread realization that model solutions can, either now or at least in the near future, be skillful in mimicking observed oceanic features; an understanding of the limitations of the alternative and more traditional scientific ...
