Zusammenfassung |
An earth system model (MIROC-ESM 2010) is fully described in terms of each
model component and their interactions. Results for the CMIP5 (Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project phase 5) historical simulation are presented to
demonstrate the model's performance from several perspectives: atmosphere,
ocean, sea-ice, land-surface, ocean and terrestrial biogeochemistry, and
atmospheric chemistry and aerosols. An atmospheric chemistry coupled version
of MIROC-ESM (MIROC-ESM-CHEM 2010) reasonably reproduces transient
variations in surface air temperatures for the period 1850–2005, as well as
the present-day climatology for the zonal-mean zonal winds and temperatures
from the surface to the mesosphere. The historical evolution and global
distribution of column ozone and the amount of tropospheric aerosols are
reasonably simulated in the model based on the Representative Concentration
Pathways' (RCP) historical emissions of these precursors. The simulated
distributions of the terrestrial and marine biogeochemistry parameters agree
with recent observations, which is encouraging to use the model for future
global change projections. |
