Nearly all operational models of upper-ocean mixing assume that the turbulence
responsible for this mixing is driven by the atmospheric fluxes of momentum, heat, and …

Abstract The new Meteorological Research Institute Earth System Model version 2.0 (MRI-
ESM2. 0) has been developed based on previous models, MRI-CGCM3 and MRI-ESM1 …

The sixth version of the Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate (MIROC), called
MIROC6, was cooperatively developed by a Japanese modeling community. In the present …

An earth system model (MIROC-ESM 2010) is fully described in terms of each model
component and their interactions. Results for the CMIP5 (Coupled Model Intercomparison …

We present a new framework for global ocean–sea-ice model simulations based on phase 2
of the Ocean Model Intercomparison Project (OMIP-2), making use of the surface dataset …

A new global climate model, MRI-CGCM3, has been developed at the Meteorological
Research Institute (MRI). This model is an overall upgrade of MRI's former climate model …

A new version of the atmosphere–ocean general circulation model cooperatively produced
by the Japanese research community, known as the Model for Interdisciplinary Research on …

We present an overview of state-of-the-art chemistry–climate and chemistry transport models
that are used within phase 1 of the Chemistry–Climate Model Initiative (CCMI-1). The CCMI …

Ocean eddies (with a size of 100–300 km), ubiquitous in satellite observations, are known to
represent about 80% of the total ocean kinetic energy. Recent studies have pointed out the …
