- W2056520640 abstract "[1] The horizontal spectrum of wind variance, conventionally referred to as the kinetic energy spectrum, is examined in experiments conducted with the Atmospheric GCM for the Earth Simulator (AFES) global spectral general circulation model. We find that the control version of AFES run at T639 horizontal spectral resolution simulates a kinetic energy spectrum that compares well at large scales with global observational reanalyses and, at smaller scales, with available aircraft observations at near-tropopause levels. Specifically there is a roughly −3 power-law dependence on horizontal wave number for wavelengths between about 5000 and 500 km, transitioning to a shallower mesoscale regime at smaller wavelengths. This is seen for both one-dimensional spectra and for the two-dimensional total wave number spectrum based on a spherical harmonic analysis. The simulated spectrum at midtropospheric levels is similar in that there is a transition to a shallower mesoscale regime, but the spectrum in the mesoscale is clearly steeper at midtroposphere than near the tropopause. There seem to be no extensive observations of horizontal spectra available in the midtroposphere, so it is not known whether the contrast seen in the model between upper and mid tropospheric levels is realistic. The dependence of the model simulated variability on the subgrid-scale moist convection parameterization is examined. The space-time variability of rainfall is shown to depend strongly on the convection scheme employed. The tropospheric kinetic energy spectrum in the mesoscale seems to be correlated with the precipitation behavior, so that in a version with a more variable precipitation field the kinetic energy in the mesoscale is enhanced. This suggests that the mesoscale motions in the model may be directly forced to a significant extent by the variability in the latent heating field. Experiments were also performed with a dry dynamical core version of the model run at both T639 and T1279 resolutions. This version also simulated a shallow mesoscale range, supporting the view that the mesoscale regime in the atmosphere is energized, at least in part, by a predominantly forward (i.e., downscale) nonlinear spectral cascade. Experiments with various formulations of the hyperdiffusion horizontal mixing parameterization show that the kinetic energy spectrum over about the last half of the resolved wave number range is under strong control by the parameterized mixing. However, the T1279 model simulates almost a decade of the shallow mesoscale regime (i.e., for horizontal wavelengths from about 80 to 500 km) that appears to be fairly independent of the diffusion employed. Finally, experiments are conducted in the dry version to see the effects on the kinetic energy spectrum of changing the thermal Rossby number for the simulations." @default.
