Influences of Circulation and Climate Change on European Summer Heat Extremes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tmospheric circulation patterns occurring on the warmest 10% of summer days for a region of Europe severely impacted by the 2003 heatwave have been identified using a perturbed parameter ensemble of regional high-resolution ...
Time Trends in Rainfall Records in Amazonia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports the results of statistical analyses for the detection of time trend in 48 rainfall records from sites in the Amazon Basin with more than 15 yr of record. Using a nonparametric test for trend in monthly ...
Simulation and Projection of the Southern Hemisphere Annular Mode in CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate variability in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) extratropical regions is dominated by the SH annular mode (SAM). Future changes in the SAM could have a large influence on the climate over broad regions. In this paper, ...
Modeling Northern Hemisphere Summer Heat Extreme Changes and Their Uncertainties Using a Physics Ensemble of Climate Sensitivity Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Changes in extreme daily temperature events are examined using a perturbed physics ensemble of global model simulations under present-day and doubled CO2 climates where ensemble members differ in their representation of ...
