We described a simplified physics approach to generating time-varying global wind and temperature fields suitable for conducting transport studies on Mars. The goal is to develop a computationally fast algorithm that will enable long-term simulations of the planet’s climate system. Thus we use a three-dimensional log-pressure global spectral model forced...
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) will add a significant new capability for investigating the 70% of the Earth's surface that is covered by oceans, in addition to contributing to the continuation of a decadal scale time series necessary for climate change assessment in the oceans. Sensor capabilities of particular...
