Climate model simulations of the semi-annual oscillation

Abstract:

The representation of the semi-annual oscillation (SAO) in models shows up a common easterly bias of several tens of m/s compared to observations, often with weaker westerly phases and stronger easterly phases in the modelled SAO. These biases in the upper stratosphere are likely a response to biases in wave forcing or the position and timing of the climatological summertime jet and Brewer-Dobson circulation (BDC). This thesis investigates the origins of SAO biases in models and explores pote...
