| 内容記述 | The annual cycle of atmospheric energetics from a 2-year integration of the GLAS/UMD Climate GCM is computed and compared to results from the European Centre analyses of the GWE year, and to previously published results on a global basis. All calculations are done in the mixed space-time domain. The main conclusions are: (1) the seasonal cycle of today's eddy kinetic energy (in both hemispheres), and of the transient eddy available potential energy and the potential-to-kinetic energy conversions (mean and eddy) in the Northern Hemisphere are well simulated by the GCM; (2) the GCM's tendency to have anomalously large mean u-winds at upper levels in high latitudes leads to excessive wintertime values of mean kinetic and available potential energies, and causes distortions in the GCM latitude-height distribution of kinetic energy and of many of the conversions; (3) the eddy conversion of available potential-to-kinetic energy obtained from the ageostrophic wind in these analyses; and (4) the conversions in the Southern Hemisphere are not well simulated by the GCM, although the observations are somewhat questionable. |
