Impact of Mountains on Tropical Circulation in Two Earth System Models
Abstract
Two state-of-the-art Earth system models (ESMs) were used in an idealized experiment to explore the role of mountains in shaping Earth’s climate system. Similar to previous studies, removing mountains from both ESMs results in the winds becoming more zonal and weaker Indian and Asian monsoon circulations. However, there are also broad changes to the Walker circulation and El Nino–Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Without orography, convection moves...
