Improved Simulation of the Antarctic Stratospheric Final Warming by Modifying the Orographic Gravity Wave Parameterization in the Beijing Climate Center Atmospheric General Circulation Model

The Antarctic stratospheric final warming (SFW) is usually simulated with a substantial delay in climate models, and the corresponding temperatures in austral spring are lower than observations, implying insufficient stratospheric wave drag. To investigate the role of orographic gravity wave drag (G...
