摘要: A multiscale modeling framework (MMF), which replaces the conventional cloud parameterizations with a cloud-resolving model (CRM) in each grid column of GCM, constitutes new and promising approach for climate modeling. The MMF can provide global coverage two-way interactions between CRMs their parent GCM. CRM allows explicit simulation processes radiation surface processes, GCM coverage. has been developed that is based on NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) finite-volume (fvGCM) Cumulus Ensemble (GCE) model. This produces many features are similar to another was at Colorado State University (CSU), such as an improved precipitation pattern, better cloudiness, diurnal variability over both oceans continents, stronger propagating Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) compared GCMs using traditional ...
