Sensitivity of a coupled climate model to canopy interception capacity
The canopy interception capacity is a small but key part of the surface hydrology, which affects the amount of water intercepted by vegetation and therefore the partitioning of evaporation and transpiration. ...

Effects of atmospheric dynamics and ocean resolution on bi-stability of the thermohaline circulation examined using the Grid ENabled Integrated Earth system modelling (GENIE) framework
We have used the Grid ENabled Integrated Earth system modelling (GENIE) framework to undertake a systematic search for bi-stability of the ocean thermohaline circulation (THC) for different surface grids and r...

Past and future polar amplification of climate change: climate model intercomparisons and ice-core constraints
Climate model simulations available from the PMIP1, PMIP2 and CMIP (IPCC-AR4) intercomparison projects for past and future climate change simulations are examined in terms of polar temperature changes in compa...

High-resolution simulations of the last glacial maximum climate over Europe: a solution to discrepancies with continental palaeoclimatic reconstructions?
The analyses of low-resolution models simulations of the last glacial maximum (LGM, 21 kyr BP) climate have revealed a large discrepancy between all the models and pollen-based palaeoclimatic reconstructions. ...

Sensitivity of the Northern Hemisphere climate of the Last Glacial Maximum to sea surface temperatures
The role of prescribing sea surface temperature in paleoclimate atmospheric simulations has been investigated by comparing Last Glacial Maximum AGCMs experiments using different SSTs data sets as well as coup...

Synoptic-scale perturbations in AGCM simulations of the present and Last Glacial Maximum climates
The conditions of development of mid-latitude depressions (synoptic eddies) in the winter Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, 21 000 years ago) are very different from the pres...

Weather regimes in past climate atmospheric general circulation model simulations
We investigate the climates of the present-day, Inception of the Last Glaciation (115 000 y ago) and Last Glacial Maximum (21 000 y ago) in the extra-tropical north Atlantic and Europe, as simulated by the La...

Simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum climates using a general circulation model: prescribed versus computed sea surface temperatures
The climate during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been simulated using the UK Universities Global Atmospheric Modelling Programme (UGAMP) general circulation model (GCM) with both prescribed sea surface t...
