Global Climate Dynamics and Interdecadal Variability

ATM-9314495巴内特加州大学圣地亚哥分校题目：全球气候动力学和年代际变率研究 这是一个双管齐下的建议，旨在i）解释负责维持和季节性和年际运动的印度太平洋暖池的动力学和热力学，和ii）年代际气候变化的时空尺度和负责这种变化的物理学。 研究将使用范围广泛的数值模型，从简单到最复杂的耦合GCM，以及广泛的观测数据集。 将对模型/观测数据集使用严格的统计技术，以阐明造成模拟/观测气候变率的物理学。 这项研究很重要，因为它是检查各种时间尺度上气候可预测性的基础。

ATM-9314495 Barnett Univ. of Cal San Diego Title: Study of Global Climate Dynamics and Interdecadal Variability This is a two-pronged proposal aimed at i) explaining the dynamics and thermodynamics responsible for the maintenance and seasonal and interannual movement of the Indo-Pacific warm pool, and ii) the space-time scales of interdecadal climate change and the physics responsible for this variability. The research will use a wide range of numerical models, from simple to the most complex coupled GCMs, and extensive sets of observed data. Rigorous statistical techniques will be used on the model/observed data sets to elucidate the physics responsible for the simulated/observed climate variability. This research is important because it serves as a foundation for examining the predictability of climate on a variety of time scales.
