Sensitivity of Tropical Convection to Land Surface Processes

摘要: Abstract This paper studies the sensitivity of large-scale tropical convection to land surface changes in general circulation model LMD. Ale method analysis is based on a conceptual energetics applied every day simulation grid points within region interest. The synoptic events are then classified by their potential energy divergence. allows for distinction between frequency and characteristic water cycle events. difference precipitation found deforestation experiments explained number intense convective while remains largely unchanged. With series ten relation processes variations studied. highest sensible heat flux: its increase leads more deep reduction evapor...
