1 Rotating and non-rotating global radiativeconvective equilibrium in CAM Kevin A. Reed National Center for Atmospheric Research Brian Medeiros, Julio Bacmeister, Peter Lauritzen, John Truesdale, Andrew Gettelman, Brian Eaton & others February 12th,
2 Motivation CAM 5 has shown some skill in simulating extreme weather events, especially at higher horizontal resolutions (~ 25 km). This is particularly true for the simulation of Tropical Cyclones (TCs). February 12th,

11 Motivation There is still much room for improvement as there exist biases in intensity, track duration, regions of formation, etc. In addition, there is uncertainty in the tuning of the model at these high horizontal resolutions and its impact on extremes. Here, we propose using an intermediate test bed to provide insight into the simulation of tropical climate at high-resolutions, as well as the model s ability to simulate extreme events such as tropical cyclones. February 12th,
12 Design of Experiments NCAR s Community Atmosphere Model version 5.3 (CAM 5.3). The SE dynamical core with 30 vertical levels is used at the horizontal resolutions of: ne=30 (~100 km) ne=120 (~25 km) Full physics in Aquaplanet mode is used, with a simplified ocean covered Earth and constant SST of 29 o C. No rotation effects or spatially uniform rotation effects. Diurnally varying, spatially uniform insolation (~340 W/m 2 ). No direct and indirect effects of aerosols. Tuning parameters are set to ne=30 configuration for all simulations. February 12th,
13 No Rotation: Resolution Comparison 6-hr Avg. Precipitation (mm/day) ne30 (~100 km) ne120 (~25 km) February 12th,

22 Preliminary SOM Results February 12th,
23 Preliminary SOM Rotation February 12th,
24 Final Thoughts We have introduced an intermediate test bed to provide insight into the simulation of tropical climate at high-resolutions, as well as the model s ability to simulate extreme events such as tropical cyclones. In the cases with no rotation the impact of resolution is quite striking, as the general structure of the RCE world differs greatly. These resolution differences are much less apparent when uniform rotation is used, as the resulting TC world appears to have a preferred regime with tropical cyclones on the globe at any given time. There are differences in the storm intensities, but not nearly as substantial as seen with the full AMIP simulations. Further experiments with the Slab Ocean Model are needed. February 12th,
