Experiments with a Stratospheric General Circulation
The 18-level primitive equation, general circulation model described in Part I was used to study the diffusion of two idealized tracers in the stratosphere. One traccr was designed to simulate broadly the behavior of the radioactive tungsten which escaped lnto the stratosphere following nuclear tests in the Tropics, the other was taken as a photochemical ozone distribution. Both the meridional ...
متن کاملA Study of Tracer Transports by Planetary Scale Waves in the Mit Stratospheric General Circulation Model
The quasi-geostrophic global stratospheric model at MIT developed by is used to study the zonal and time-averaged transport of potential temperature and ozone by the planetary zonal wavenumbers 1-6. Several types of covariances between the winds, geopotential, and the tracers are calculated in order to evaluate the directions and strength of the fluxes and the winds causing the fluxes. The eddy...
متن کاملTropospheric response to stratospheric perturbations in a relatively simple general circulation model
[1] The sensitivity of the tropospheric extratropical circulation to thermal perturbations of the polar stratosphere is examined in a dry primitive equation general circulationmodel with zonally symmetric forcing and boundary conditions. For sufficiently strong cooling of the polar winter stratosphere, the winter-hemisphere tropospheric jet shifts polewards and strengthens markedly at the surfa...
متن کاملExperiments with a Stratospheric General Circulation Model 111 . Large - Scale Diffusion of Ozone including Photochemistry
As a continuation of the previous experiments in this series, the 18-vertical-level general circulation model was used to investigate the large-scale diffusion of a further two tracers in the stratosphere. In the present experiment both tracers were initiated as photochemical ozone distributions, one distribution being based on photochemistry in an oxygen-only atmosphere, the other on photochem...
متن کاملA Quasi-geostrophic Model of the Winter Stratospheric Circulation
A six-level quasi-geostrophic model including radiative and photochemical processes in the manner suggested by Lindaen and Goody is run from a state of joint radiative-photochemical equilibrium for midwinter conditions. The spectral method is used to integrate the equations where all dependent variables are represented by a set of spherical harmonics with east-west wave numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, and ...
