Modelling the Weather of the 21st Century
Abstract
Improving the models we work with is fundamental to improving our ability to predict and understand future weather change. In the Modelling Science project of the Centre of Excellence for 21st Century weather, we are building km-scale versions of the ACCESS model, both regional and global, coupled and uncoupled. This talk will provide an update of the science and improved modelling capability we are undertaking to e.g. understand the role of small-scale SST gradients on atmospheric phenomena, including tropical cyclones and coastal processes; quantify the role of surface heterogeneity on weather systems; and identify the impact of small-small coupling on the large scale weather and climate.
