On the Tropospheric Response to Anomalous Stratospheric Wave Drag and Radiative Heating
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observational and numerical evidence suggest that variability in the extratropical stratospheric circulation has a demonstrable impact on tropospheric variability on intraseasonal time scales. In this study, it is demonstrated ...
Subseasonal-to-Seasonal Extreme Precipitation Events in the Contiguous United States: Generation of a Database and Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Modified Framework for Quantifying Land–Atmosphere Covariability during Hydrometeorological and Soil Wetness Extremes in Oklahoma
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractGlobal ?hot spots? for land?atmosphere coupling have been identified through various modeling studies?both local and global in scope. One hot spot that is common to many of these analyses is the U.S. southern Great ...
Paleoclimate Reconstructions of Tropical Sea Surface Temperatures from Precipitation Proxies: Methods, Uncertainties, and Nonstationarity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Proxy-based paleoclimate reconstructions of tropical sea surface temperature (SST) fields may lead to better constraints of tropical climate variability in climate model projections. In this study, the authors quantify ...
Linking Siberian Snow Cover to Precursors of Stratospheric Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: revious research has linked wintertime Arctic Oscillation (AO) variability to indices of Siberian snow cover and upward wave activity flux in the preceding fall season. Here, daily data are used to examine the surface and ...
Synoptic Characteristics of 14-Day Extreme Precipitation Events across the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although significant improvements have been made to the prediction and understanding of extreme precipitation events in recent decades, there is still much to learn about these impactful events on the subseasonal time ...
Primary Atmospheric Drivers of Pluvial Years in the United States Great Plains
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractPrecipitation variability has increased in recent decades across the Great Plains (GP) of the United States. Drought and its associated drivers have been studied in the GP region; however, periods of excessive ...
North Pacific Decadal Variability and Climate Change in the IPCC AR4 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he two leading modes of North Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) and sea level pressure (SLP), as well as their connections to tropical variability, are explored in the 24 coupled climate models used in the Intergovernmental ...
Modes of Storm-Scale Variability and Tornado Potential in VORTEX2 Near- and Far-Field Tornadic Environments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Inland Maintenance and Reintensification of Tropical Storm Bill (2015). Part I: Contributions of the Brown Ocean Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
