Summary
Abstract: A Coupled Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Model has been developed for simulation of climate change. Global Warming is simulated by the model with a gradual increase of carbon dioxide by 1% per year compound, starting from the 1985 condition. This simulation shows the Decadal Pacific Variability which covers:
(1) Sea surface temperature anomaly
(2) Surface wind stress anomaly
(3) Ocean heat content (averaged temperature of upper 600m)
