The Effect of Local Sea Surface Temperatures on Atmospheric Circulation over the Tropical Atlantic Sector
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies on atmospheric circulation are examined by analyzing several ensembles of integrations of an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) forced with ...
Impacts of the 1900–74 Increase in Anthropogenic Aerosol Emissions from North America and Europe on Eurasian Summer Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe impact of North American and European (NAEU) anthropogenic aerosol emissions on Eurasian summer climate during the twentieth century is studied using historical single- and all-forcing (including anthropogenic ...
Assessing the Significance of Changes in ENSO Amplitude Using Variance Metrics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he variance of time series records relating to ENSO, such as the interannual anomalies or bandpass filtered components of equatorial Pacific SST indices, provides one approach to quantifying changes in ENSO amplitude. ...
Central-Eastern China Persistent Heat Waves: Evaluation of the AMIP Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractLarge-scale and persistent heat waves affecting central-eastern China are investigated in 40 different simulations of sea surface temperature driven global atmospheric models. The different models are compared with ...
A Review of Uncertainties in Global Temperature Projections over the Twenty-First Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Quantification of the uncertainties in future climate projections is crucial for the implementation of climate policies. Here a review of projections of global temperature change over the twenty-first century is provided ...
