Title

GISS-ModelE/Russell Coupled Atmosphere Ocean Model deployed on NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) (USA) computer

Abstract

This computation involved: GISS-ModelE/Russell Coupled Atmosphere Ocean Model deployed on NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) (USA) computer. The Goddard Institute of Space Studies ModelE/Russell model is run as a fully coupled ocean-atmosphere climate model.

The Goddard Institute of Space Studies ModelE/Russell model is run as a fully coupled ocean-atmosphere climate model.
The model explores how changes in the levels and locations of ozone precursor emissions, (such as nitrogen oxides NO and NO; referred to as NO, carbon monoxide (CO) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including methane, could affect tropospheric ozone abundances, from the pre-industrial period to future projections.

Research at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) emphasizes a broad study of global change.
The climate modeling program at NASA GISS is primarily aimed at the development of three-dimensional general circulation models (GCMs) and coupled atmosphere-ocean models for simulating Earth's climate system.

Research at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) emphasizes a broad study of global change.
The climate modeling program at NASA GISS is primarily aimed at the development of three-dimensional general circulation models (GCMs) and coupled atmosphere-ocean models for simulating Earth's climate system.
The climate models that GISS has developed and operates include atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) and coupled atmosphere-ocean models. Such computer models numerically solve fundamental equations describing the conservation of mass, energy, momentum, etc. for each atmospheric gridbox, while taking into account the transfer of those quantities between gridboxes. They also consider, often in parameterized form, the physical processes within the boxes, including sources and sinks of these quantities.
