During a multiyear project funded by the Department of Energy's Water Power Technologies Office, engineers from Sandia's Water Power program are using a combination of modeling and experimental testing to refine how a wave energy converter moves and responds in the ocean to capture wave energy while also considering how to improve the resiliency of the device in a harsh ocean environment.

Other researchers are pushing the frontiers of climate modeling, simulating how the oceans, atmosphere and land responded as Pliocene temperatures soared.

To test the hypothesis, Kutzbach and Lui ran an ocean model that responded to the increased radiation, then fed the revised ocean temperatures into an atmosphere model.

Burls» team discovered this phenomenon by modeling how the Pliocene ocean would have responded to higher temperatures.

Conor Purcell from Cardiff University's School of Earth and Ocean Sciences, said: «Using the simulations performed with our climate model, we were able to demonstrate that the climate system can respond to small changes with abrupt climate swings.

Furthermore, basic physical understanding supports the modeled value of E being substantially greater than 1, as deep oceans clearly take longer to respond than the land surface, so the Northern Hemisphere, with most of the world's land, will respond more rapidly than the Southern Hemisphere with more ocean.

The researchers use computer models to forecast future ocean conditions such as surface temperatures, salinity, and currents, and project how the distribution of different fish species could respond to climate change.

Unprecedented amounts of greenhouse gases (at least over the last few hundred thousand years) continue to accumulate in the atmosphere and the global climate (land surface, ocean, glaciers, stratosphere) continues to respond as predicted by theory and models.

The new findings will help improve computer models to better predict how types of phytoplankton and their ability to sink carbon and produce oxygen will respond to ocean changes in the future.

If current model oceans are responding this way, we should hear about it.

The authors investigate how the global monsoon (GM) precipitation responds to the external and anthropogenic forcing in the last millennium by analyzing a pair of control and forced millennium simulations with the ECHAM and the global Hamburg Ocean Primitive Equation (ECHO - G) coupled ocean — atmosphere mOcean Primitive Equation (ECHO - G) coupled ocean — atmosphere mocean — atmosphere model.

Then you need the climate model to respond accurately to all these radiative forcings, and by taking full account of the heat capacity of the atmosphere, land, and ocean, to produce a time trend of the global temperature.

In the models that generated the maps featured above, the atmosphere is allowed to respond freely to pre-set changes in the ocean or land surface that the scientists specify in the course of the simulation, but the ocean can't adapt to atmospheric changes in response.

I believe the lower bound is being made lower because of physics modeling that says that the ocean surface temperature will take forever to fully respond to the forcing.

Using atmospheric general - circulation models, as well as coupled ocean - atmosphere models, he investigates the interactions between large - scale climate systems such as ocean and wind currents to understand natural variability and how climate responds to human - made forcings.
