Atmospheric Tracer Transport Model Intercomparison Project (TransCom)
A multi-phase program of model intercomparison is proposed to reduce uncertainties in the global carbon budget resulting from differences among atmospheric tracer transport simulations. The TransCom program is already well underway, having begun in 1993 and completed two major experiments. The results to date are summarized in a Technical Report and indicate that significant differences among t...
متن کاملDownscale cascades in tracer transport test cases: an intercomparison of the dynamical cores in the Community Atmosphere Model CAM5
The accurate modeling of cascades to unresolved scales is an important part of the tracer transport component of dynamical cores of weather and climate models. This paper aims to investigate the ability of the advection schemes in the National Center for Atmospheric Research’s Community Atmosphere Model version 5 (CAM5) to model this cascade. In order to quantify the effects of the different ad...
متن کاملRotated Versions of the Jablonowski Steady-State and Baroclinic Wave Test Cases: A Dynamical Core Intercomparison
The Jablonowski test case is widely used for debugging and evaluating the numerical characteristics of global dynamical cores that describe the fluid dynamics component of Atmospheric General Circulation Models. The test is defined in terms of a steady-state solution to the equations of motion and an overlaid perturbation that triggers a baroclinically unstable wave. The steady-state initial co...
متن کاملGas transport in firn: multiple-tracer characterisation and model intercomparison for NEEM, Northern Greenland
Air was sampled from the porous firn layer at the NEEM site in Northern Greenland. We use an ensemble of ten reference tracers of known atmospheric history to characterise the transport properties of the site. By analysing uncertainties in both data and the reference gas atmospheric histories, we can objectively assign weights to each of the gases used for the depth-diffusivity reconstruction. ...
متن کاملAssessing Tracer Transport Algorithms and the Impact of Vertical Resolution in a Finite-Volume Dynamical Core
Modeling the transport of trace gases is an essential part of any atmospheric model. The tracer transport scheme in the Community Atmosphere Model finite-volume dynamical core (CAM-FV), which is part of the National Center for Atmospheric Research’s (NCAR’s) Community Earth System Model (CESM1), is investigated using multidimensional idealized advection tests. CAM-FV’s tracer transport algorith...
