摘要: AbstractTo investigate the impacts of uncertain parameters on simulated Pacific Walker circulation (PWC), a large number perturbed parameter simulations are conducted using GAMIL2 (the Grid-point Atmospheric Model IAP/LASG, version 2), and three different PWC indices selected. The results show that influences some dependent selected index – finding supported by inconsistent responses indexes to these parameters. Among nine parameters, RH threshold for deep convection (RHCRIT) is most sensitive in simulating PWC. Increased RHCRIT weakens convective heating stratiform cooling, strengthens shallow heating. Further analysis reveals affect through changing diabatic vertical motion.
