Soil Moisture Feedbacks to Precipitation in Southern Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of increased soil moisture on wet season (October?March) precipitation in southern Africa are investigated using the Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3). In the CTRL case, soil moisture is allowed ...
On the Causes and Dynamics of the Early Twentieth-Century North American Pluvial
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he early twentieth-century North American pluvial (1905?17) was one of the most extreme wet periods of the last 500 yr and directly led to overly generous water allotments in the water-limited American west. Here, the ...
North American Pancontinental Droughts in Model Simulations of the Last Millennium
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ancontinental droughts in North America, or droughts that simultaneously affect a large percentage of the geographically and climatically distinct regions of the continent, present significant on-the-ground management ...
Are Simulated Megadroughts in the North American Southwest Forced?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ultidecadal drought periods in the North American Southwest (25°?42.5°N, 125°?105°W), so-called megadroughts, are a prominent feature of the paleoclimate record over the last millennium (LM). Six forced transient simulations ...
Multiyear La Niña Events and Multiseason Drought in the Horn of Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Investigating the Strength and Variability of El Niño–Southern Oscillation Teleconnections to Hydroclimate and Maize Yields in Southern and East Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Dynamics and Variability of the Spring Dry Season in the United States Southwest as Observed in AmeriFlux and NLDAS-2 Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe spring dry season occurring in an arid region of the southwestern United States, which receives both winter storm track and summer monsoon precipitation, is investigated. Bimodal precipitation and vegetation ...
Observed and Projected Changes to the Precipitation Annual Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAnthropogenic climate change is predicted to cause spatial and temporal shifts in precipitation patterns. These may be apparent in changes to the annual cycle of zonal mean precipitation P. Trends in the amplitude ...
