ENSO Bred Vectors in Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere General Circulation Models
The breeding method has been implemented in the NASA Seasonal-to-Interannual Prediction Project (NSIPP) coupled general circulation model (CGCM) with the ultimate goal of improving operational seasonal to interannual climate predictions through ensemble forecasting and data assimilation. This is the first attempt to isolate the evolving ENSO instability and its corresponding global atmospheric ...
متن کاملTransient Climate Response in Coupled Atmospheric–Ocean General Circulation Models
The equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) has a large uncertainty range among models participating in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) and has recently been presented as ‘‘inherently unpredictable.’’ One way to circumvent this problem is to consider the transient climate response (TCR). However, the TCR among AR4 models also differs by more tha...
متن کاملGlobal Climate and Ocean Circulation on an Aquaplanet Ocean–Atmosphere General Circulation Model
A low-resolution coupled ocean–atmosphere general circulation model (OAGCM) is used to study the characteristics of the large-scale ocean circulation and its climatic impacts in a series of global coupled aquaplanet experiments. Three configurations, designed to produce fundamentally different ocean circulation regimes, are considered. The first has no obstruction to zonal flow, the second cont...
متن کاملThe climate of the Last Glacial Maximum: Results from a coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model
Results from a coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model simulation of the Last Glacial Maximum reveal annual mean continental cooling between 48 and 78C over tropical landmasses, up to 268 of cooling over the Laurentide ice sheet, and a global mean temperature depression of 4.38C. The simulation incorporates glacial ice sheets, glacial land surface, reduced sea level, 21 ka orbital pa...
