  • Subseasonal variability in the Southern Hemisphere as simulated by a two-level atmospheric general circulation model

    Creator:
    Tomas, Robert A.
    Abstract:
    The dynamical nature of atmospheric disturbances in the Southern Hemisphere simulated by a two-level general circulation (GCM) model is studied. Time series of the dependent variables and diabatic heating components from 10 Southern Hemisphere winters (JJA) and summers (DJF) simulated by the Oregon State University two-level GCM are used. The...

  • Energetics studies of the OSU two-level atmospheric general circulation model

    Creator:
    Wang, Jough-tai
    Abstract:
    Numerical simulation of the January and July global climate with the OSU two-level atmospheric general circulation model has generated time series of the global distribution of selected climatic variables. Analyses of these data for the kinetic energy and available potential energy based on 31-day time mean statistics have been made...

  • Simulation of tropical pacific circulation anomalies with linear atmosphere and ocean models

    Creator:
    Dixit, Sanjay
    Abstract:
    A simple atmosphere and ocean model of relevance to El Nino and Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is discussed. Both the atmosphere and ocean models are two layer, three dimensional, linear and baroclinic, and generally follow the Oregon State University coupled general circulation model. However, the parameterization differs considerably from previous work...
