Description
Understanding the variability of the Earth's climate is complicated by the mutual interactions that exist between the atmosphere and the oceans of the Earth. The purpose of the research described in this paper is to attempt to understand the rudiments of such interactions by constructing a simple 1-D atmosphere-ocean model in order to examine the sensitivity of the equilibrium of a coupled climate "system" to changes in the imposed external forcings....
