A 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 ...
متن کاملPhysical and Mathematical Properties of a Quasi-Geostrophic Model of Intermediate Complexity of the Mid-Latitudes Atmospheric Circulation
A quasi-geostrophic intermediate complexity model is considered, providing a schematic representation of the baroclinic conversion processes which characterize the physics of the mid-latitudes atmospheric circulation. The model is relaxed towards a given latitudinal temperature profile, which acts as baroclinic forcing, controlled by a parameter TE determining the forced equator-topole temperat...
متن کاملGeneralization of the dual variational data assimilation algorithm to a nonlinear layered quasi-geostrophic ocean model
In this paper, we present a generalization to nonlinear models of the four dimensional variational dual method, the 4D-PSAS algorithm. The idea of 4DPSAS (Physical Space Analysis System) is to perform the minimization in the space of the observations, rather than in the model space as in the primal 4D-VAR scheme. Despite the formal equivalence between 4D-VAR and 4D-PSAS in a linear situation (b...
متن کاملStatistical characteristics, circulation regimes and unstable periodic orbits of a barotropic atmospheric model.
The theory of chaotic dynamical systems gives many tools that can be used in climate studies. The widely used ones are the Lyapunov exponents, the Kolmogorov entropy and the attractor dimension characterizing global quantities of a system. Another potentially useful tool from dynamical system theory arises from the fact that the local analysis of a system probability distribution function (PDF)...
متن کاملQUAGMIRE v1.3: a quasi-geostrophic model for investigatingrotating fluids experiments
QUAGMIRE is a quasi-geostrophic numerical model for performing fast, high-resolution simulations of multi-layer rotating annulus laboratory experiments on a desktop personal computer. The model uses a hybrid finite-difference/spectral approach to numerically integrate the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations of motion in cylindrical geometry in each layer. Version 1.3 implements the...
