Title: Physics and dynamics coupling across scales in the next generation CESM: Meeting the challenge of high resolution. Final report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1170514· OSTI ID:1170514

This is a final report for a SciDAC grant supported by BER. The project implemented a novel technique for coupling small-scale dynamics and microphysics into a community climate model. The technique uses subcolumns that are sampled in Monte Carlo fashion from a distribution of subgrid variability. The resulting global simulations show several improvements over the status quo.
