RISPlanetary-Scale Disturbances in the Southern Stratosphere during Early Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The early winter (mid-April to mid-July) circulation in the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere is studied. Emphasis is placed on the evolution of strong disturbances with structures dominated by the zonal wavenumber-1 component ...
Stochastic Forcing of the North Atlantic Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation. Part I: A Diagnostic Analysis of the Ocean Response to Stochastic Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: At midlatitudes, the magnitude of stochastic wind stress forcing due to atmospheric weather is comparable to that associated with the seasonal cycle. Stochastic forcing is therefore likely to have a significant influence ...
Stochastic Forcing of the North Atlantic Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation. Part II: An Analysis of the Dynamical Ocean Response Using Generalized Stability Theory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As discussed in Part I of this study, the magnitude of the stochastic component of wind stress forcing is comparable to that of the seasonal cycle and thus will likely have a significant influence on the ocean circulation. ...
Optimal Forcing Patterns for Coupled Models of ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The optimal forcing patterns for El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) are examined for a hierarchy of hybrid coupled models using generalized stability theory. Specifically two cases are considered: one where the forcing ...
ERA-20C: An Atmospheric Reanalysis of the Twentieth Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ECMWF twentieth century reanalysis (ERA-20C; 1900?2010) assimilates surface pressure and marine wind observations. The reanalysis is single-member, and the background errors are spatiotemporally varying, derived from ...
