Tropical performance of the CCSR Coupled GCM Masahide Kimoto Center for Climate System Research University of Tokyo in collaboration with All the CCSR-family members
CCSR Coupled Model MIROC2.1 • Atmosphere • CCSR/NIES AGCM v5.6 • Nakajima et al. (2000) radiation (2 stream DOM/adding) • Simplified Arakawa-Schubert • Le Treut-Li prognostic cloud • Bucket land surface • Grid advection for tracers (FFSL; Flux Form Semi-Lagrangian/van Leer) • Mellor-Yamada lvl2.0 + (optional) non-local PBL, cloud-top entrainment instability • MacFarlane GWD • Ocean • COCO (CCSR Ocean Component Model; http://www.ccsr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~hasumi/COCO/) • Rigid-lid, vertical-z • UTOPIA tracer advection • Isopycnal diffusion/Gent-McWilliams eddy-iunduced tracer transport • Noh & Kim mixed layer • Nakano-Suginohara bottom boundary layer parameterization • Sea Ice • Semtner 0-layer thermodynamics + EVP rheology No flux correction applied
