Middle Atmospheric Traveling Waves Forced by Latent and Convective Heating
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The excitation and propagation of equatorial planetary waves and inertia-gravity waves were studied by comparing simulations from the comprehensive GFDL troposphere-stratosphere-mesosphere SKYHI general circulation model ...
Impact of the Stratosphere on the Winter Tropospheric Teleconnections between ENSO and the North Atlantic and European Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The possible role of stratospheric variability on the tropospheric teleconnection between El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the North Atlantic and European (NAE) region is addressed by comparing results from two ...
Gravity Waves from Fronts: Parameterization and Middle Atmosphere Response in a General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Current parameterizations of the gravity wave processes that are relevant to middle atmosphere general circulation modeling need to have specified somewhere in the lower atmosphere a number of characteristics of the gravity ...
Arctic Stratosphere Dynamical Response to Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe role of stationary planetary waves in the dynamical response of the Arctic winter stratosphere circulation to global warming is investigated here by analyzing simulations performed with atmosphere-only models ...
Effects of Tropical Cyclones on Ocean Heat Transport in a High-Resolution Coupled General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper the interplay between tropical cyclones (TCs) and the Northern Hemispheric ocean heat transport (OHT) is investigated. In particular, results from a numerical simulation of the twentieth-century and ...
A Comparison between Gravity Wave Momentum Fluxes in Observations and Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: or the first time, a formal comparison is made between gravity wave momentum fluxes in models and those derived from observations. Although gravity waves occur over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, the focus ...
A New Look at Stratospheric Sudden Warmings. Part II: Evaluation of Numerical Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The simulation of major midwinter stratospheric sudden warmings (SSWs) in six stratosphere-resolving general circulation models (GCMs) is examined. The GCMs are compared to a new climatology of SSWs, based on the dynamical ...
Two Distinct Phases of North Atlantic Eastern Subpolar Gyre and Warming Hole Evolution under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Assessing and Understanding the Impact of Stratospheric Dynamics and Variability on the Earth System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: in weather and climate research have demonstrated the role of the stratosphere in the Earth system across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Stratospheric ozone loss has been identified as a key driver of Southern ...
Impacts of Arctic Sea Ice on Cold Season Atmospheric Variability and Trends Estimated from Observations and a Multimodel Large Ensemble
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
