Detecting Regime Transitions of the Nocturnal and Polar Near-Surface Temperature Inversion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Many natural systems undergo critical transitions, i.e., sudden shifts from one dynamical regime to another. In the climate system, the atmospheric boundary layer can experience sudden transitions between fully turbulent ...
Dynamical Properties of the North Atlantic Atmospheric Circulation in the Past 150 Years in CMIP5 Models and the 20CRv2c Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIt is of fundamental importance to evaluate the ability of climate models to capture the large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns and, in the context of a rapidly increasing greenhouse forcing, the robustness ...
Computation and Characterization of Local Subfilter-Scale Energy Transfers in Atmospheric Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAtmospheric motions are governed by turbulent motions associated to nontrivial energy transfers at small scales (direct cascade) and/or at large scales (inverse cascade). Although it is known that the two cascades ...
