Idealized Hot Spot Experiments with a General Circulation Model
Idealized experiments are conducted using a GCM coupled to a 20-m slab ocean model to examine the short-term response to an initial localized positive equatorial SST anomaly, or “hot spot.” A hot spot is imposed upon an aquaplanet with globally uniform 28°C SST, insolation, and trace gas concentrations designed to mimic tropical warm pool conditions. No boundary condition or external parameter ...
متن کاملWeather-Layer Dynamics of Baroclinic Eddies and Multiple Jets in an Idealized General Circulation Model
The general circulation and the behavior of multiple jets and baroclinic eddies are described for an atmosphere in which meridional potential temperature gradients and eddies are confined to a weather layer. The weather layer is separated from the frictional lower boundary by a statically stable barotropic layer with significant mass. Closure of the zonal momentum budget in the resulting circul...
متن کاملConvectively Coupled Kelvin Waves in an Idealized Moist General Circulation Model
The dynamics of convectively coupled Kelvin waves and their dependence on convection scheme parameters are studied within a simplified moist general circulation model. The model consists of the primitive equations on the sphere over zonally symmetric aquaplanet, slab mixed layer ocean boundary conditions, and idealized physical parameterizations including gray radiative transfer and a simplifie...
متن کاملArctic Ocean circulation in an idealized numerical model
The mid-to-deep Arctic Ocean is generally characterized by a cyclonic circulation, contained along shelves and ridges. Here we analyze the general Arctic circulation using an idealized numerical model consisting of a circular basin with two channels acting as inflow and outflow. We analyze the circulation (direction, strength and sensitivity) for wind forcing with and without bathymetry (ridges...
متن کاملMulti - scale interactions in an idealized Walker circulation : Mean 1 circulation and intra - seasonal variability
5 A high resolution cloud resolving model (CRM) simulation is developed here for a two6 dimensional Walker circulation over a planetary scale domain of 40000 km for an extended 7 period of several hundred days. The Walker cell emerges as the time averaged statistical 8 steady state with a prescribed sinusoidal sea surface temperature (SST) pattern with mean 9 temperature of 301.15 K and horizon...
