Atlantic Atmosphere-Ocean Interaction: A Stochastic Climate Model-Based Diagnosis
|
ABSTRACT
A simple linear stochastic climate model of extratropical wintertime ocean-atmosphere coupling is used to diagnose the daily interactions between the ocean and the atmosphere in a fully coupled general circulation model. Monte Carlo simulations with the simple model show that the influence of the ocean on the atmosphere can be difficult to estimate, being biased low even with multiple decades of daily data. Despite this, fitting the simple model to the surface air temperature and sea surface temperature data from the complex general circulation model reveals an ocean-to-atmosphere ...
