RISStorm-Track Shifts under Climate Change: Toward a Mechanistic Understanding Using Baroclinic Mean Available Potential Energy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: onal-mean storm-track shifts in response to perturbations in climate occur even in idealized simulations of dry atmospheres with axisymmetric forcing. Nonetheless, a generally accepted theory of the mechanisms controlling ...
Storm Track Shifts under Climate Change: What Can Be Learned from Large-Scale Dry Dynamics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arth?s storm tracks are instrumental for transporting heat, momentum, and moisture and thus strongly influence the surface climate. Climate models, supported by a growing body of observational data, have demonstrated that ...
Linking Hadley Circulation and Storm Tracks in a Conceptual Model of the Atmospheric Energy Balance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMidlatitude storm tracks shift in response to climate change and natural climate variations such as El Niño, but the dynamical mechanisms controlling these shifts are not well established. This paper develops an ...
The Eddy-Driven Jet and Storm-Track Responses to Boundary Layer Drag: Insights from an Idealized Dry GCM Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractSimulations using a dry, idealized general circulation model (GCM) are conducted to systematically investigate the eddy-driven jet?s sensitivity to the location of boundary layer drag. Perturbations of boundary ...
Eddy-Driven Jet Sensitivity to Diabatic Heating in an Idealized GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe eddy-driven jet is studied using a dry idealized model to determine its sensitivity to thermal forcings. The jet latitude, speed, and variability are investigated under a series of Gaussian patch thermal forcing ...
