Title:A world ocean model for greenhouse sensitivity studies: resolution intercomparison and the role of diagnostic forcing
Publication:Climate Dynamics, 9, 321-344
Abstract:We have developed an improved version of a world ocean model with the intention of coupling to an atmospheric model. This article documents the simulation capability of this 1 degree global ocean model, shows improvements over our earlier 5 degree version, and compares it to features simulated with a 0.5 degree model. These experiments use a model spin-up methodology whereby the ocean model can subsequently be coupled to an atmospheric model and used for order 100-year coupled model

Title:The influence of changes in vegetation type on the surface energy budget
Publication:Adv. Atmos. Sci., 11, 139-161
Abstract:The influence of changes in vegetation type on the surface energy budget was studied using the Simple Biosphere Model (SiB) of Sellers et al. (1986). The modeled energy budget response to the conversion of forest to shor vegetation or bare soil (deforestation) was investigated with SiB forced by three time-series of atmospheric boundary conditions collected at three different climatic sites: an Amazonian tropical forest, a U.S. Great Plains grassland, and a Central Wales spruce forest.

Abstract:In this paper, the CCM0B model is used to study the effect of the deforestation on the climate of China and its neighboring regions. On the assumption that the forest in China would be replaced by the vegetation (such as grassland), the distribution of the albedo changed was calculated. The initial fields used were taken from the FGGE zonal mean data on 16 July, 1979.

In the first 19-years run SST anomalies were prescribed globally (GAGO run), and in two others SST monthly variability was limited to extratropoical regions (MOGA run) and to tropics (TOGA run), r

Abstract:Recent studies by Cess et al. and Ramanathan et al. find that clouds absorb significantly more shortwave radiation than currently modeled by general circulation models. Intitial calculations for the global annual shortwave energy budget imply that including the additional shortwave cloud absorption leads to an additional 22 W m^-2 absorption in the atmosphere, with an equivalent reduction of shortwave flux at the surface.

Title:Climate and the Earth's radiation budget.
Publication:Physics Today, May 1989, 22-32
Abstract:A NASA multisatelite experiment has determined that clouds cool the planet more than they heat it and identified them as a major source of uncertainty in 3D models used for studying the greenhouse effect and global warming.
