Numerical Modeling of the Global Atmosphere in the Climate System (NATO Science Series C:)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A broad, up to date treatment of the science of climate prediction. Topics covered include the use of atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) as tools for studying climate variability and predicting change, the design and analysis of AGCM experiments, the components of an AGCM (especially numerical techniques, representation of physical and chemical processes), and a selection of additional applications of AGCMs, including regional modelling, data assimilation and palaeoclimate modelling. All authors are leading experts in their areas, ensuring that the text is both authoritative and unique. Readership: Advanced undergraduate and graduate students of atmospheric science and researchers in climate prediction and related fields.
Book Info
Describes some general considerations in planning and executing an experiment with a GCM. Discusses the inner workings of a GCM, including the dynamical core and the most common parameterizations.
