The Stratosphere in General Circulation Models

摘要: A simple discussion of the processes which maintain mean state stratosphere is given in order to demonstrate how might influence tropospheric circulation. series GCM studies indicate that strength polar night jet important determining planetary wave structures troposphere are then summarized. These experiments used determine response stratospheric changes during northern winter, when largest expected. The climatological and time scale on develops has been determined using separate experiments. Finally, problems with physical parameterizations typically encountered extending GCMs include full lower mesosphere
