Coarse-grained stochastic models for tropical convection and climate.

چکیده
Prototype coarse-grained stochastic parametrizations for the interaction with unresolved features of tropical convection are developed here. These coarse-grained stochastic parametrizations involve systematically derived birth/death processes with low computational overhead that allow for direct interaction of the coarse-grained dynamical variables with the smaller-scale unresolved fluctuations. It is established here for an idealized prototype climate scenario that, in suitable regimes, these coarse-grained stochastic parametrizations can significantly impact the climatology as well as strongly increase the wave fluctuations about an idealized climatology.

Stochastic and mesoscopic models for tropical convection.
A new way to parametrize certain aspects of tropical convection through stochastic and mesoscopic models is developed here. The technical idea is to adapt tools from statistical physics and materials science to model important unresolved features of tropical convection. This new strategy consists of modeling the unresolved effects of convective inhibition in a coarse mesh mesoscopic parametriza...
متن کاملA Stochastic Phase-field Model Determined from Molecular Dynamics
Abstract. The dynamics of dendritic growth of a crystal in an undercooled melt is determined by macroscopic diffusion-convection of heat and by capillary forces acting on the nanometer scale of the solid-liquid interface width. Its modelling is useful for instance in processing techniques based on casting. The phase-field method is widely used to study evolution of such microstructural phase tr...
متن کاملMultiscale Couplings in Prototype Hybrid Deterministic/stochastic Systems: Part Ii, Stochastic Closures∗
Couplings of microscopic stochastic models to deterministic macroscopic ordinary and partial differential equations are commonplace in numerous applications such as catalysis, deposition processes, polymeric flows, biological networks and parametrizations of tropical and open ocean convection. In this paper we continue our study of the class of prototype hybrid systems presented in [8]. These m...
متن کاملGeometric Ergodicity for Piecewise Contracting Processes with Applications for Tropical Stochastic Lattice Models
Stochastic lattice models are increasingly prominent as a way to capture highly intermittent unresolved features of moist tropical convection in climate science and as continuum mesoscopic models in material science. Stochastic lattice models consist of suitably discretized continuum partial differential equations interacting with Markov jump processes at each lattice site with transition rates...
متن کاملCoarse-grained stochastic processes for microscopic lattice systems.
Diverse scientific disciplines ranging from materials science to catalysis to biomolecular dynamics to climate modeling involve nonlinear interactions across a large range of physically significant length scales. Here a class of coarse-grained stochastic processes and corresponding Monte Carlo simulation methods, describing computationally feasible mesoscopic length scales, are derived directly...
