The LGM surface climate and atmospheric circulation over East Asia and the North Pacific in the PMIP2 coupled model simulations

Abstract: Abstract. The surface conditions and atmospheric circulation over East Asia and the North Pacific during the last glacial maximum have been investigated using outputs from several coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model in the PMIP2 database. During the boreal summer, the weakening of the high pressure system over the North Pacific and less precipitation over East Asia are found in most models. The latter can be attributed to reduced moisture transport. During the boreal winter, an intensification o… Show more

“…9d). These results show that there is no specific differences between the different sets of simulations, suggesting that the change in precipitation is mostly due to the reduction in the mean water vapour associated to the large-scale cooling across the tropical regions, the reduction in evaporation, changes in the residence time of water in the atmosphere and to changes in water vapour advection (Yanase and Abe-Ouchi, 2007). …”

“…The lake is located in a region influenced by both Siberian and North Pacific oceanic air-masses (Barr and Clark, 2011;Yanase and Abe-Ouchi, 2007;Mock et al, 1998), making it very sensitive to regional atmospheric change. The high potential of Lake El'gygytgyn as a globally significant paleoclimate and environmental archive is confirmed by numerous studies on the lake sediments formed during the past three glacial/interglacial cycles (BrighamGrette et al, 2007b;Lozhkin et al, 2007;Melles et al, 2007;Minyuk et al, 2007;Nowaczyk et al, 2007;Swann et al, 2010;Asikainen et al, 2007).…”

“…Simulating the LGM provides an opportunity to study climate response to a decrease in CO 2 concentration and an increase in ice sheets over North America and northern Europe, along with the change of the solar irradiance and the land-sea mask. Researchers have investigated regional (Yanase and Abe-Ouchi 2007;Jiang and Lang Abstract Change of global monsoon (GM) during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) is investigated using results from the multi-model ensemble of seven coupled climate models participated in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5. The GM changes during LGM are identified by comparison of the results from the pre-industrial control run and the LGM run.…”
