Modeling and Analysis of Ageostrophic Circulation over the Azores Oceanic Front during the SEMAPHORE Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the conventional quasigeostrophic (QG) form of the ? equation developed by Hoskins et al., the unique forcing of vertical velocity is the geostrophic deformation. As the QG or even the semigeostrophic (SG) hypotheses ...
An Energetics Study of Wintertime Northern Hemisphere Storm Tracks under 4 × CO2 Conditions in Two Ocean–Atmosphere Coupled Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Different possible behaviors of winter Northern Hemisphere storm tracks under 4 ? CO2 forcing are considered by analyzing the response of two of the ocean?atmosphere coupled models that were run for the fourth Assessment ...
Present Wave Climate in the Bay of Biscay: Spatiotemporal Variability and Trends from 1958 to 2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate change impacts on wave conditions can increase the risk of offshore and coastal hazards. The present paper investigates wave climate multidecadal trends and interannual variability in the Bay of Biscay during the ...
