TL;DR: The Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) as discussed by the authors is a coupled climate model with components representing the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice, and land surface connected by a flux coupler.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Climatological Spectral Study of the 500 mb Geopotential Height of the Northern Hemisphere.
TL;DR: In this paper, a 10-year record of the 500 mb geopotential height for the Northern Hemisphere has been expanded into spherical harmonics and filtered in the time domain.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Observational Study of the Northern Hemisphere Wintertime Circulation
TL;DR: In this article, the temporal variance and covariance quantities at each individual grid point are partitioned into low-pass and band-pass components by means of conventional filtering procedures. But the most definitive results of the study involve the band- pass fluctuations which appear to be associated with developing baroclinic waves.

TL;DR: The history of the CCSM, its current capabilities, and plans for its future development and applications are outlined, with the goal of providing a summary useful to present and future users.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between Cyclone Tracks, Anticyclone Tracks and Baroclinic Waveguides
TL;DR: In this article, the structure and evolution of highfrequency fluctuations with periods shorter than 6 days in the geopotential height field were analyzed using a statistical analysis of 1000, 500 and 250 mb height fields derived from twice-daily NMC final analyses over the Northern Hemisphere for the 20 winters 1964/65 through 1983/84.
