摘要: AbstractThe Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) has developed a coupled general circulation model (CM3) for the atmosphere, oceans, land, and sea ice. The goal of CM3 is to address emerging issues in climate change, including aerosol–cloud interactions, chemistry–climate coupling between troposphere stratosphere. also designed serve as physical system component earth models decadal prediction near-term future—for example, through improved simulations tropical land precipitation relative earlier-generation GFDL models. This paper describes dynamical core, parameterizations, basic simulation characteristics atmospheric (AM3) this model. Relative AM2, AM3 includes new treatments deep shallow cumulus convection, cloud droplet activation by aerosols, subgrid variability stratiform vertical velocities activation, chemistry driven emiss...
