RISUsing a Synoptic-Scale Mixing Diagnostic to Explain Global Precipitation Variability from Weekly to Interannual Time Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Precipitation often happens along organized filaments or bands of moisture such as convergence zones. Recent regional studies have shown that these moisture filaments arise from synoptic-scale mixing features known as ...
A Moist Available Potential Energy Budget for an Axisymmetric Tropical Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The main energy source for the intensification of a tropical cyclone (TC) is widely accepted to be the transfer of energy from the ocean to the atmosphere via surface fluxes. The pathway through which these surface fluxes ...
Mitigating Climate Biases in the Midlatitude North Atlantic by Increasing Model Resolution: SST Gradients and Their Relation to Blocking and the Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Starting to resolve the oceanic mesoscale in climate models is a step change in model fidelity. This study examines how certain obstinate biases in the midlatitude North Atlantic respond to increasing resolution (from 1° ...
Extratropical Transition of Tropical Cyclones in a Multiresolution Ensemble of Atmosphere-Only and Fully Coupled Global Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical cyclones undergo extratropical transition (ET) in every ocean basin. Projected changes in ET frequency under climate change are uncertain and differ between basins, so multimodel studies are required to establish ...
