AbstractThe parameterization of radiative transfer in the AGCM run at CPTEC/INPE (Center for Weather Forecast and Climate Studies/National Institute for Space Research, hereafter CPTEC) since early nineties is based on the work of Harshvardhan et al. (1987). The original implementation, made at COLA (Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies), replaced the eight-exponential-term formulation of Lacis and Hansen (1974) for shortwave water vapor absorption with the five-exponential-term formulation of Davies (1982). This reduced costs and kept column-integrated fluxes, but gave origin to non-realistic oscillations on the heating rate profiles, and the main disadvantage of this old shortwave scheme was the underestimation of the solar radiation absorbed by the atmosphere in comparison to line-byline reference calculations (Plana-Fattori et al., 1997; Souza et al., 1997). The climatic characteristics of CPTECs AGCM were analyzed by Cavalcanti et al. (2002), who con- firmed its deficiencies in simulating the observed radiative fluxes and highlighted the need for improvement on the radiation and cloud parameterizations. Moreover, Tarasova and Cavalcanti (2002) showed that the model systematically overestimates surface solar fluxes if compared to satellite-derived estimates. Overestimation of solar radiation reaching the surface has been a problem for most GCMs worldwide and improvement is being gradually achieved during recent decades (Wild et al., 2006). At CPTEC, an improvement was achieved in 2004 when the eleven-exponential-term formulation of Ramaswamy and Freidenreich (1992) for water vapor shortwave absorption became operational, replacing Daviess formulation. In parallel, efforts are being made to implement and test modern radiative transfer schemes inside CPTECs AGCM (Barbosa and Tarasova, 2006). This paper describes some impacts of the implementation of the UK Met Offices shortwave radiation scheme (Edwards and Slingo, 1996), hereafter UKMO code, on the climatic characteristics of CPTECs AGCM. Section 2 highlights some aspects of UKMOs code implementation. Section 3 presents results of comparisons of current (Harshvardhan et al., 1987; Ramaswamy and Freidenreich, 1992) CPTECs shortwave radiation scheme, hereafter CPTEC code, with UKMO code and line-by-line calculations for typical atmospheric columns. Section 4 presents results of two long-term ensemble integrations of CPTECs AGCM, one with CPTEC code and other with UKMO code, and conclusions are presented in Section 5.
