This type of coupling between an ocean model and an ABL1D is a newly proposed approach as an alternative of intermediate complexity between bulk forcing and full coupling with an atmosphere model. In ABL1D, the prognostic tracers are nudged toward large-scale variables and the wind is guided by a low-frequency geostrophic wind provided from the ERA-Interim reanalyses. First, the ABL1D is successfully validated against satellite observations regarding the wind, and the dynamic coupling coefficient (linking the near surface wind and wind-stress to the of the surface currents) are consistent with the literature, over the period 2016–2017. Our results show that the thermal feedback has a negligible impact on kinetic energy (KE) and does not influence the strength of the current feedback in the region. Given the ABL1D physics, this further indicates that the changes in the vertical wind structure caused by CFB are primarily governed by local mechanical mechanisms associated with surface wind-stress condition, rather than by thermodynamic or non-local processes within the planetary boundary layer. The induced KE reduction by the current feedback amounts to 14% at the surface and propagates down to 2000 m, indicating that it can modify the vertical distribution of KE throughout the water column. KE reductions in the surface boundary layer (0 – 300 m) and in the interior (300 – 2000 m) are attributed to a reduction of the surface wind work by 4%, and of the pressure work by 7%, respectively. The Ekman pumping anomalies induced by the current feedback tend to attenuate eddy activity and horizontal pressure gradients at depth, illustrating the potential of the current feedback to induce a geostrophic adjustment on the water column. These results illustrate the relevance of the proposed ABL1D coupling approach for reproducing the wind-current coupling (a.k.a. current feedback effect) which cannot be taken into account straightforwardly with simple bulk forcing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 101464"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141040093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The heavy rainfall is produced by a MCS occurred over Pearl River Delta in South China on May 21, 2020. Four cloud microphysical schemes (including WSM6, WDM6, THOMP and LIUMA) are investigated to understand their impacts on structure and evolution of rainfall system. Results show that the WSM6 over-predicts the 24-hour accumulated rainfall, while the other three schemes underestimate the rainfall. In general, these deviations of total rainfall are mainly caused by generated rainfall during mature stage of MCS. Four schemes all underestimate precipitation during this period, but the deviation is the least in WSM6 and WDM6 schemes. As far as both WSM6 and WDM6 schemes, quantitative verification shows that the threat score (TS) and the false alarm ratio (FAR) as well as the proportion of convective/stratiform precipitation in the WSM6 single-moment scheme are superior to those in the WDM6 double-moment scheme. Investigation of vertical distributions of precipitation particles and the associated thermodynamic response in the environment shows that compared with THOMP and LIUMA, WSM6 and WDM6 simulate more ice and snow in the upper level and more rain and cloud water in the low troposphere as MCS evolves into mature state. With the top-heavier heating and the strongest upward motion lasting longer time, WSM6 may lead to stronger dynamical feedback to large-scale environment compared with THOMP. All these reveal that WSM6 is the most accurate scheme simulating this warm-sector rainstorm and the importance of more accurate simulation on the evolution and structure of precipitation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"106 ","pages":"Article 101463"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0377026524000319/pdfft?md5=80657255744067246433202a01417d06&pid=1-s2.0-S0377026524000319-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141068733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we use a fully linked atmosphere-ocean-sea ice Earth system model to investigate the North Atlantic subpolar ocean dynamics over the last 21 thousand years before the present (ka). We found that the SPG strength, net ocean surface heat flux, and mixed layer depth in the North Atlantic deep convection sites declined during the Heinrich 1 (H1; ∼19–17 ka) and Younger Dryas (YD; ∼12.9–11.3 ka) cold events. Consequently, the deep convection and AMOC strength declined, reducing the northward meridional heat transport and causing the expansion of Atlantic sea ice coverage. We also found that the North Atlantic subpolar net ocean surface heat flux varied coherently with AMOC strength throughout the past 21 ka. Subsequently, we observed a sea ice-capping mechanism wherein an increase (decrease) in Atlantic sea ice coverage during H1/YD (Bølling-Allerød (BA; ∼17–14.35 ka)) reduces (increases) net ocean surface heat flux and deep convection, thereby influencing the AMOC strength. Meanwhile, the SPG and AMOC strengths have been in-phase throughout the past 21 ka, except during the abrupt termination and input of freshwater flux during the BA and Meltwater Pulse 1 A (∼14.4–13.9 ka) events, respectively. In conclusion, our study suggests that a sudden shift in freshwater discharge into the subpolar North Atlantic may disturb the polar ocean dynamics.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"106 ","pages":"Article 101462"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141034320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
