Some aspects of southwest monsoon as seen in a GLAS GCM simulation

The GCM simulations to see if they simulate the southwest summer monsoon or aspects of it were studied. In particular, the GLAS GCM simulations have also been studied with monsoon in view. Aspects of the summer monsoon, viz., disturbances in the monsoon flow and periodicities in the monsoon fluctuations as revealed in a simulation were investigated. Results of climate simulation for 50 summer days from June 15, 1979 through August 3, 1979 are reported. Daily mean fields were computed from these data sets for the monsoon region. The monsoon region here is defined as the region bounded by latitudes 30 S - 42 N and longitudes 45 E - 120 E.
