Abstract :
Interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, ice, land surface, and the marine and terrestrial biosphere control the global climate system. These components are coupled by the exchange of momentum, radiative energy, and trace constituents´ mass. Various processes drive this exchange and require different computational methods to model it.
