DCPAM: Results of computation

The results of the calculations done recently have been described in the upper part of the page.


  1. Preliminary experiments for virtual planet like Jovian atmosphere
  2. Numerical calculation of decaying turbulence on a rotating sphere using two-level model
  3. dcpam4 physical processes implementation test (aqua planet experiment)
  4. Experiment for synchronously rotating planet
  5. Experiment for responses to thermal forcing(2, 3, 4, 20 layer models)
  6. Held and Suarez (1994) experiments

Preliminary experiments for virtual planet like Jovian atmosphere

Numerical calculation of decaying turbulence on a rotating sphere using two-level model

With dcpam4, the numerical calculation of decaying turbulence on a rotating sphere on a rotating sphere are performed.

dcpam4 physical processes implementation test (aqua planet experiment)

Experiment for synchronously rotating planet

Test experiments of synchronously rotating planet

Experiment for responses to thermal forcing(2, 3, 4, 20 layer models)

With dcpam3, numerical experiments on atmospheric response to equatorial thermal forcing are performed.

Held and Suarez (1994) experiments

A benchmark calculation proposed by Held and Suarez(1994). This test evaluates the dynamical core of DCPAM.
