[1] This study shows that the surface buoyancy conditions in the Northern Hemisphere may influence the stratification and transport of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC). We use a course-resolution ocean general circulation model (OGCM) in an idealized single-basin configuration with a circumpolar channel. A decrease in the magnitude of the surface temperature meridional gradient in the No...

abstract in this study, impact of climate change on net irrigation requirement (in) and yield of wheat using cgcm3 climate projection model, one of the aogcm models, in behshahr area is evaluated. changes in temperature and precipitation were simulated run under the ipcc scenario a2 for 2011-2040, 2041-2070 and 2071-2100 periods. this work was done by using statistical and proportional downscal...

An ocean general circulation model (OGCM) with wetting and drying (WAD) capabilities removes the vertical-wall coastal assumption and allows simultaneous modeling of open-ocean currents and water run-up (and run-down) across movable land–sea boundaries. This paper implements and tests such a WAD scheme for the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) in its most general three-dimensional setting with strati...
