Transport Circulation Deduced from SAMS Trace Species Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three years of zonally averaged N2O and CH4 data from the SAMS instrument on Nimbus 7 are utilized to investigate the annual and semiannual cycles in long-lived tracer mixing ratios. The annual and semiannual variations ...
Type Classification of Sudden Stratospheric Warming Based on Pre- and Postwarming Periods
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn existing literature, sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) events have been typically defined as displacement or split types. Detailed reexamination of SSW evolution has revealed that an SSW event often alters its ...
Eddy Heat Flux Convergence in the Troposphere and Its Effect on the Meridional Circulation and Ozone Distribution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study the vertical convergence of the eddy heat flux, found as a forcing term in the thermodynamic energy equation of the transformed Eulerian mean formulation, is estimated in the troposphere and in the lower ...
