Parametrization of momentum transport by convection. II: Tests in single‐column and general circulation models

Gregory, D., Kershaw, R., Inness, P. M.·1997·Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society

Abstract

Diagnostics derived from cloud‐resolving‐model simulations in part I of this study, relating to the vertical transport of horizontal momentum by convection, are used to develop a parametrization of convective momentum‐transports for deep convection based upon the mass‐flux convection‐scheme discussed by Gregory and Rowntree. the importance of cloud pressure‐gradients to the flow within the cloud is emphasised, and a simple method of representing their effect is suggested. the scheme is able to reproduce the fluxes derived from the cloud‐resolving model studies where cloud organization by the flow is unimportant. Inclusion of the parametrization in a version of the Meteorological Office Unified Model demonstrates that convective momentum‐transports play a large role in the momentum balance of the atmosphere. Generally, simulation of the mean atmospheric circulation by the Unified Model is improved by the inclusion of such transports.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
