متن کاملThe Hadley Circulation as a Radiative-Convective Instability
Hadley cell simulations over a tropical ocean are reported which suggest that the emission and absorption of thermal radiation by clouds and moisture play a primary role in the dynamics of the Hadley circulation. In particular, inclusion of interactions between clouds and moisture on one hand and radiation on the other causes the tropical atmosphere to become unstable to large scale convective ...
متن کاملA global radiative-convective feedback
We have investigated the sensitivity of the intensity of convective activity and atmospheric radiative cooling to radiatively thick upper-tropospheric clouds using a new version of the Colorado State University General Circulation Model. The model includes a bulk cloud microphysics scheme to predict the formation of cloud water, cloud ice, rain, and snow. The cloud optical properties are intera...
متن کاملConvective overshooting on the Sun: radiative effects
We calculate solar models with convective overshooting at the top and at the base of the outer convection zone, and test the models by comparing their eigenfrequencies to the observed solar p-mode frequencies. Radiative temperature relaxation is included in form of a characteristic time that describes both optically thick and thin cases, and a modified mixing-length formalism is used, with gas ...
متن کاملLand-Atmosphere Interaction and Radiative-Convective Equilibrium
I present work on several topics related to land-atmosphere interaction and radiativeconvective equilibrium: the first two research chapters invoke ideas related to landatmosphere interaction to better understand radiative-convective equilibrium; the last two research chapters use the framework of radiative-convective equilibrium to better understand land-atmosphere interaction. First, I calcul...
