Patterns and Variations of Snow Accumulation over Greenland, 1979–98, from ECMWF Analyses, and Their Verification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ECMWF monthly climate analyses were used to retrieve surface temperature, precipitation, evaporation/sublimation, and in conjunction with a simple meteorological model, snow accumulation over Greenland for 1979?98. The ...
Icelandic Coastal Sea Surface Temperature Records Constructed: Putting the Pulse on Air–Sea–Climate Interactions in the Northern North Atlantic. Part I: Comparison with HadISST1 Open-Ocean Surface Temperatures and Preliminary Analysis of Long-Term Patterns and Anomalies of SSTs around Iceland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new comprehensive record of long-term Icelandic sea surface temperature measurements, which have been updated and filled in with reference to air temperature records, is presented. The new SST series reveal important ...
New Insights into North European and North Atlantic Surface Pressure Variability, Storminess, and Related Climatic Change since 1830
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors present initial results of a new pan-European and international storminess since 1800 as interpreted from European and North Atlantic barometric pressure variability (SENABAR) project. This first stage analyzes ...
Simple Statistical Probabilistic Forecasts of the winter NAO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he variability of the North Atlantic Oscillation is a key aspect of Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation and has a profound impact upon the weather of the surrounding land masses. Recent success with dynamical ...
Observed and Modeled Greenland Ice Sheet Snow Accumulation, 1958–2003, and Links with Regional Climate Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Annual and monthly snow accumulation for the Greenland Ice Sheet was derived from ECMWF forecasts [mainly 40-yr ECMWR Re-Analysis (ERA-40)] and further meteorological modeling. Modeled accumulation was validated using 58 ...
The Melting Arctic and Midlatitude Weather Patterns: Are They Connected?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he potential of recent Arctic changes to influence hemispheric weather is a complex and controversial topic with considerable uncertainty, as time series of potential linkages are short (<10 yr) and understanding involves ...
Increased Runoff from Melt from the Greenland Ice Sheet: A Response to Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors attribute significantly increased Greenland summer warmth and Greenland Ice Sheet melt and runoff since 1990 to global warming. Southern Greenland coastal and Northern Hemisphere summer temperatures were ...
