On the Role of the Atmospheric Energy Transport in 2 × CO2–Induced Polar Amplification in CESM1
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA doubling of the atmospheric CO2 content leads to global warming that is amplified in the polar regions. The CO2 forcing also leads to a change of the atmospheric energy transport. This transport change affects ...
Polar Amplification in CCSM4: Contributions from the Lapse Rate and Surface Albedo Feedbacks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: vertically nonuniform warming of the troposphere yields a lapse rate feedback by altering the infrared irradiance to space relative to that of a vertically uniform tropospheric warming. The lapse rate feedback is negative ...
Evaluation of Six Atmospheric Reanalyses over Arctic Sea Ice from Winter to Early Summer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study evaluates the performance of six atmospheric reanalyses (ERA-Interim, ERA5, JRA-55, CFSv2, MERRA-2, and ASRv2) over Arctic sea ice from winter to early summer. The reanalyses are evaluated using observations ...
