Recent Atmospheric Variability at Kibo Summit, Kilimanjaro, and Its Relation to Climate Mode Activity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAccurate knowledge of the impact of internal atmospheric variability is required for the detection and attribution of climate change and for interpreting glacier records. However, current knowledge of such impacts ...
Atmospheric Processes and Climatological Characteristics of the 79N Glacier (Northeast Greenland)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden glacier (the 79 fjord, henceforth referred to as 79N) has been thinning and accelerating since the early 2000s, as a result of calving episodes at the front of the glacier. As 8% of the ...
Quantifying Climate Change in the Tropical Midtroposphere over East Africa from Glacier Shrinkage on Kilimanjaro
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Slope glaciers on Kilimanjaro (ca. 5000?6000 m MSL) reached their most recent maximum extent in the late nineteenth century (L19) and have receded since then. This study quantifies the climate signal behind the recession ...
Precipitation Seasonality and Variability over the Tibetan Plateau as Resolved by the High Asia Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecause of the scarcity of meteorological observations, the precipitation climate on the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding regions (TP) has been insufficiently documented so far. In this study, the characteristics and basic ...
