Scientific paper

The NCAR terrestrial Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) atmospheric model has been converted into a global, planetary GCM, with fully compressible treatment of the atmosphere, 3D Coriolis and curvature treatment, and hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic options. The model has been converted for use on Venus, initially using the linearized forcing and dissipation parameterizations of recent Venus GCMs (Lee et al.(2005), Yamamoto and Takahashi (2003)). Analysis of the momentum transports, atmospheric circulation, and super-rotation diagnostics will be presented. Preliminary analysis of experiments using more realistic forcing on longer timescales will also be presented, and the response of the atmospheric circulation to a diurnally varying forcing will be described.
