Atmospheric Tides and the Diurnal Cycle on Earth and Other Planets - Cur...

The
latest standardized database of Earth climate model output features 24
high-time-frequency fields including surface pressure, allowing for the
first time a direct global comparison of simulations and surface
observations of atmospheric tides. The comparison reveals surprising
agreement, raising the possibility of models "getting the right answer
for the wrong reasons" and leading to general considerations of middle
atmosphere phenomena on Earth and other worlds, e.g. superrotation on
Venus and Titan. Also, since Earth atmospheric tides contribute to
near-surface processes like the sea breeze, our studies lead naturally
to inspection of the diurnal cycle of precipitation and the boundary
layer.
