Climatology, Computing, Engineering, Mathematics, Meteorology, Natural sciences, Physical sciences, Sciences A computational module within a numerical weather prediction or climate model that solves the fundamental equations governing atmospheric or oceanic dynamics, such as the Navier–Stokes equations, to simulate fluid motion on Earth.

  • Based on the results of Fox-Rabinovitz (2000) and Fox-Rabinovitz et al. (1997, 2000, 2001), whose stretched-grid GCM has successfully produced variable-resolution global predictions, we have made predictions with the SEAM dycore and simple HS physics applying global and regional scaling concurrently, to check SEAM's skill using LMR under conditions similar to Fox-Rabinovitz et al. (2001, hereafter F-R).2006 November, Ferdinand Baer, Houjun Wang, Joseph J. Tribbia, Aimè Fournier, “Climate Modeling with Spectral Elements”, in Monthly Weather Review, volume 134, number 11, page 3515:
  • The notion of multi-scale applies to dycore computations both spatially and temporally.2013 January 9, David A. Yuen, Long Wang, Xuebin Chi, Lennart Johnsson, Wei Ge, Yaolin Shi, GPU Solutions to Multi-scale Problems in Science and Engineering, Springer Science & Business Media, page 272:

  • So, it is important to be aware that the dynamical core (dycore, for short) is not the only piece of a GCM responsible for the challenging numerical task of advecting fluid.2020, Freddy Bouchet, Antoine Venaille, Tapio Schneider, Christophe Salomon, editors, Fundamental Aspects of Turbulent Flows in Climate Dynamics: Lecture Notes of the Les Houches Summer School: Volume 109, August 2017, illustrated edition, Oxford University Press, page 18:
