Features: This book provides a detailed introduction to the coupled climate system model FGOALS-s, which is developed based on the main-funded Atmospheric General Circulation Spectral Model (SAMIL) and co-funded Ocean General Circulation Model (LICOM) from the important direction project "The Impact of Sea-Land-Air Interaction in the Asian Monsoon Region on China's Climate Change" of the Knowledge Innovation Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as well as the modular coupler based on the Climate System Model (CCSM) of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The content includes the model framework, physical process parameterization, model structure, component models, coupled model simulation results, and model usage instructions. This book also systematically summarizes the research achievements of the fourth topic "Development of Next-Generation Climate System Models" under the important direction project "The Impact of Sea-Land-Air Interaction in the Asian Monsoon Region on China's Climate Change" of the Knowledge Innovation Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The authors are mostly the designers of the Atmospheric General Circulation Spectral Model (SAMIL) and its corresponding coupled climate system model (FGOALS-s). This book can serve as a reference for researchers in meteorology, oceanography, global change, and related fields, as well as users of SAMIL and its corresponding coupled model FGOALS-s.
