Formulation of an ocean model for global climate simulations
This paper summarizes the formulation of the ocean component to the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory’s (GFDL) climate model used for the 4th IPCC Assessment (AR4) of global climate change. In particular, it reviews the numerical schemes and physical parameterizations that make up an ocean climate model and how these schemes are pieced together for use in a state-of-the-art climate model. F...
متن کاملClimate Sensitivity of the Community Climate System Model, Version 4
Equilibrium climate sensitivity of the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) is 3.208C for 18 horizontal resolution in each component. This is about a half degree Celsius higher than in the previous version (CCSM3). The transient climate sensitivity of CCSM4 at 18 resolution is 1.728C, which is about 0.28C higher than in CCSM3. These higher climate sensitivities in CCSM4 cannot be e...

Equilibrium climate sensitivity of the Community Climate System Model Version 4 (CCSM4) is 3.20◦C for 1◦ horizontal resolution in each component. This is about a half degree Celsius higher than in the previous version (CCSM3). The transient climate sensitivity of CCSM4 at 1◦ resolution is 1.72◦C, which is about 0.2◦C higher than in CCSM3. These higher climate sensitivities in CCSM4 cannot be ex...
متن کاملNorthern high latitude heat budget decomposition and transient 1 warming
6 Many climate models are unable to capture the magnitude of observed warming and sea ice 7 decline in high northern latitudes. To understand the factors affecting the simulated warming 8 we compare the response to increasing CO2 in two pairs of climate models by decomposing 9 the 40–90◦N region heat budget. Each pair includes a member with enhanced global and 10 northern high latitude surface ...
متن کاملEvaluating the performance of Atmosphere-Ocean Global Circulation Models (AOGCM) in simulating temperature variable in Ahwaz and Abadan stations
Climate changes caused by global warming has presented challenges to human society. Studying the Changes of climate variables in the future decades by using output data’s of Atmosphere-Ocean Global Circulation Models (AOGCM) is a way of perusing climate fluctuation in a region. In this study, the focus is on the AOGCM proceeds in simulating of variable temperature in Ahwaz and Abadan stations. ...
