Superrotation in a Venus general circulation model
A super–rotating atmosphere with equatorial winds of ∼ 35m s is simulated using a simplified Venus General Circulation Model (GCM). The equatorial super-rotation in the model atmosphere is maintained by barotropic instabilities in the the mid–latitude jets which transport angular momentum towards the equator. The mid–latitude jets are maintained by the mean meridional circulation and the moment...
متن کاملRecovery of atmospheric flow statistics in a general circulation model without nonlinear eddy-eddy interactions
[1] The closure problem of turbulence arises because nonlinear interactions among turbulent fluctuations (eddies) lead to an infinite hierarchy of moment equations for flow statistics. Here we demonstrate with an idealized general circulation model (GCM) that many atmospheric flow statistics can already be recovered if the hierarchy of moment equations is truncated at second order, correspondin...
متن کاملInteractions between Cloud Microphysics and Cumulus Convection in a General Circulation Model
In the Colorado State University general circulation model, cumulus detrainment of cloud water and cloud ice has been, up to now, the only direct coupling between convective and large-scale condensation processes. This one-way interaction from the convective to the large-scale environment parameterizes, in a highly simplified manner, the growth of anvils spreading horizontally at the tops of na...
متن کاملInteractions between tropospheric chemistry and aerosols in a unified general circulation model
[1] A unified tropospheric chemistry-aerosol model has been developed within the Goddard Institute for Space Studies general circulation model (GCM). The model includes a detailed simulation of tropospheric ozone-NOx-hydrocarbon chemistry as well as aerosols and aerosol precursors. Predicted aerosol species include sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, black carbon, primary organic carbon, and secondary ...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Indian Ocean Circulation in Spherical Coordinate
In recent years, the Indian Ocean (IO) has been discovered to have a much larger impact on climate variability than previously thought. This paper reviews processes in which the IO is, or appears to be, actively involved. We begin the mathematical model with a pattern for summer monsoon winds. Three dimensional temperature and velocity fields are calculated analytically for the ocean forced by ...
