GOALS Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System for Predicting Seasonal-to-Interannual Climate: A Program of Observation, Modeling, and Analysis

B
The 1993 GOALS Study Conference

The GOALS Study Conference was held in Hawaii on 1–3 March 1993, with about 110 participants. The conference was arranged to receive maximum inputs from the scientific community on the plans for observations, modeling, and research in the post-TOGA period. It was organized around a number of scientific questions, each of which was introduced by an invited speaker. Following the scientific presentations, the Study Conference broke into three working groups—modeling, observations, and empirical/process studies. This procedure gave all attendees an opportunity to provide input. The Study Conference agenda and list of participants follow.

MONDAY, MARCH 1, 1993 Keoni Auditorium 0900 Welcome and Opening Remarks Barry Raleigh William Sprigg Jagadish Shukla Morning Session Chair: Klaus Wyrtki 0920 GOALS and Climate and Global Change in the United States Otis Brown 0940 CLIVAR Gordon McBean 1020 BREAK   1040 TOGA Mark Cane 1120 GOALS Overview Ed Sarachik 1140 LUNCH   Afternoon Session Chair: Tetsuzo Yasunari Science Questions: 1300 1. What are the structure and dynamics of the seasonal cycle of the coupled ocean-atmosphere-land system and what are the reasons for its large spatial variability over the globe? George Philander

GOALS Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System for Predicting Seasonal-to-Interannual Climate: A Program of Observation, Modeling, and Analysis 1340 2. What is the nature of the global interannual climate variability and what is its relationship to the seasonal cycle? What processes give rise to such variability? Can our understanding of this variability be exploited for prediction? Dennis Hartmann 1420 3. What is the role of the slowly varying global boundary conditions at the earth's surface (SST, sea ice, snow cover and land moisture) in determining the nature of the interannual variability of the global atmosphere? Jagadish Shukla 1500 BREAK   1520 4. What determines low-level convergence of moisture in the tropics over water, land, and land in the proximity to water? In other words, what determines the location of the thermal sources? Edwin Schneider 1600 5. What is the nature of tropical-extratropical interactions? In particular, what is the role of tropical SST anomalies in perturbing the extratropical atmosphere, and in generating extratropical SST anomalies through the atmosphere? For what regions of the globe can accurate predictions of tropical SST anomalies be translated into skillful regional climate forecasts one or more seasons in advance?

GOALS Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System for Predicting Seasonal-to-Interannual Climate: A Program of Observation, Modeling, and Analysis TUESDAY, MARCH 2, 1993 Keoni Auditorium Morning Session Chair: Gordon McBean 0830 6. What improvements in coupled ocean-land-atmosphere models, convection, mixing and in particular the processes that determine the coupling of the atmosphere and ocean are needed for seasonal to interannual predictions? Carlos Mechoso 0910 7. Are there interactions between interannual and interdecadal variability? If so, what is the nature of these interactions? Are there similar or different mechanisms at work on these two time scales? Michael Ghil 0950 BREAK   1010 8. What is the role of high frequency fluctuations in the tropics and mid-latitudes in seasonal to interannual climate variability and predictability? Roger Lukas 1050 9. What measurements of the global upper ocean and land surface are required to initialize the coupled models of the global ocean–atmosphere–land system for prediction of seasonal and interannual variability?
