挪威气候中心的地球系统模式,命名为NorESM 1-M的核心版本,介绍。NorESM系列模式以大学大气研究公司的社区气候系统模式第4版为基础,但与后者的不同之处尤其在于等密度坐标海洋模式和先进的化学-气溶胶-云-辐射相互作用方案。NorESM 1-M的大气和陆地分量水平分辨率约为2A度,海洋和冰分量为1A度。NorESM也有较低分辨率的版本(NorESM 1-L)和包括预测地球化学循环的版本(NorESM 1-ME)。后两个模型配置不是本文的一部分。在这里,一阶评估模型的稳定性,平均模型状态和内部变异的基础上提供给CMIP 5的模型实验。模型性能的进一步分析在随附的论文中提供(Iversen等人,2013年),介绍了相应的气候响应和情景预测与NorESM 1-M。
The core version of the Norwegian Climate Center's Earth System Model, named NorESM1-M, is presented. The NorESM family of models are based on the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, but differs from the latter by, in particular, an isopycnic coordinate ocean model and advanced chemistry-aerosol-cloud-radiation interaction schemes. NorESM1-M has a horizontal resolution of approximately 2A degrees for the atmosphere and land components and 1A degrees for the ocean and ice components. NorESM is also available in a lower resolution version (NorESM1-L) and a version that includes prognostic biogeochemical cycling (NorESM1-ME). The latter two model configurations are not part of this paper. Here, a first-order assessment of the model stability, the mean model state and the internal variability based on the model experiments made available to CMIP5 are presented. Further analysis of the model performance is provided in an accompanying paper (Iversen et al., 2013), presenting the corresponding climate response and scenario projections made with NorESM1-M.
