Popis: A numerical experiment on the climate state of a synchronously rotating terrestrial planet is performed by using a General Circulation Model (GCM) with simplified hydrologic and radiative processes. The system utilized is basically equivalent to the GCM of Ishiwatari et al. (2002) in which the runaway greenhouse state in a three-dimensional system is examined. The value of solar constant is set to the terrestrial value. The incident solar radiation is assumed to be permanently given to one side of planet. The results of the experiment are as follows: (1) Longitudinal heat transport in low latitudinal region is resulted from propagations of equatorial Kelvin wave and equatorial Rossby wave. (2) In higher latitudinal region, baroclinic eddies contribute to heat transport from the day side to the night side.
