CLIVAR WORKSHOP. Barcelona 4-6 June 2007: Joint Proposal to WGOMD 1
Background
• WGOMD is about to discuss experimental setup to asses ocean model performance in the representation of the inter-annual variability. Possibility of X-Panel interaction and feedback.
• The GCMS have large errors in the Pacific basin and ENSO, and large uncertainty about the causes.
• Suggestion: to conduct, in addition to the “MAIN” experiment, a series of sensitivity ocean-only experiment that could give guidance on which elements are key for improvement of the Pacific climate simulations.
• As additional information:
Seasonal forecasts is an ideal test bed to asses the quality of the
GCMS used in future climate projections:o Need ocean initial conditions to carry out experimentso Not all the groups have ocean data assimilation systems in place.
=> The “MAIN” experiment may be used as initial conditions in coupled The “MAIN” experiment may be used as initial conditions in coupled model forecasts.model forecasts.

CLIVAR WORKSHOP. Barcelona 4-6 June 2007: Joint Proposal to WGOMD 2
Questions from the Pacific Panel
• There are known model deficiencies in the representation of the Pacific climate:
Upwelling off the South American Coast (winds, resolution…?) Cold tongue penetrating too far west (winds? momentum
mixing…?) Too weak/too strong east-west slope of the thermocline Equatorial heat content (IT/meridional transport, vertical mixing) …
• Is it possible to say which are the dominant source of error?
Forcing fields? Model parameterizations/configuration? Model resolution? Parameterization of air-sea interaction?

CLIVAR WORKSHOP. Barcelona 4-6 June 2007: Joint Proposal to WGOMD 3
Suggestion
• Conduct a long ocean model simulation (20-40 years) with a variety of models, using inter-annually varying atmospheric forcing. This will be the “MAIN” integration, long integration can be used as:
a reference experiment to diagnose and answer some of the above questions (see later)
To provide initial conditions for concerted seasonal forecast experiments.?
• Conduct additional integrations with each model if possible (no compulsory), to test sensitivities.
Different forcing fields Different resolution Different parameterization, bulk formulae, ….It could be good to see these sensitivities from more than one model.

Example:
• Diagnosing the sources of uncertainties in the Ocean Analysis intercomparison project organized by GSOP.
Analyses with and without data assimilation Different analyses use different forcing fields Different analyses use different models Models have different resolutions
• The analyses are clustered according to some criteria, and the standard deviation of the cluster is used as a measure of uncertainty.

• The sensitivity experiments can be done and diagnosed within each group without need of big volumes of “data” transfers.
• Not all the groups need to carry “all” and the same the sensitivity experiments.
• It would be interesting to measure the sensitivities both in in the mean state and in the interannual variability.
• Other basin panels will be interested in the outcome,
