摘要:

我们介绍了气象局统一模型(UM)的结果,这是一个世界领先的气候和天气模型,适用于模拟干燥的火星气候。我们详细介绍了适应的基本parameterisation和分析结果,从两个模拟,一个与辐射活性矿物尘埃和一个与辐射惰性尘埃。这些模拟演示了灰尘的辐射效应如何加速风,并在沙尘季节创造一个中等高度的等温层。我们通过与已建立的火星模型,气象动力学行星气候模型(PCM)的比较来验证我们的模型,在季节性风和温度分布中找到了很好的一致性,但在预测的尘埃质量混合比和两极条件中存在差异。这项研究验证了UM在火星大气中的使用,强调了地球大气环流模型(GCM)的适应如何有利于现有的火星GCM,并为我们开发新的火星气候模型的下一步提供了见解。

英文摘要:

We present results from the Met Office Unified Model (UM), a world-leading climate and weather model, adapted to simulate a dry Martian climate. We detail the adaptation of the basic parameterisations and analyse results from two simulations, one with radiatively active mineral dust and one with radiatively inactive dust. These simulations demonstrate how the radiative effects of dust act to accelerate the winds and create a mid-altitude isothermal layer during the dusty season. We validate our model through comparison with an established Mars model, the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique planetary climate model (PCM), finding good agreement in the seasonal wind and temperature profiles but with discrepancies in the predicted dust mass mixing ratio and conditions at the poles. This study validates the use of the UM for a Martian atmosphere, highlighting how the adaptation of an Earth general circulation model (GCM) can be beneficial for existing Mars GCMs and provides insight into the next steps in our development of a new Mars climate model.
