Sensitivity of Arctic Climate Variability to Mean State: Insights from the Cretaceous
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates Arctic climate variability during a period of extreme warmth using the Community Climate System Model, version 3 (CCSM3) coupled ocean?atmosphere general circulation model. Four mid-Cretaceous ...
Terminating the Last Interglacial: The Role of Ice Sheet–Climate Feedbacks in a GCM Asynchronously Coupled to an Ice Sheet Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limatic deterioration in northeastern Canada following the last interglacial resulted in the formation and abrupt expansion of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. However, the physical mechanisms leading to rapid ice sheet expansion ...
Dehumidification over Tropical Continents Reduces Climate Sensitivity and Inhibits Snowball Earth Initiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he enigmatic Neoproterozoic geological record suggests the potential for a fully glaciated ?snowball Earth.? Low-latitude continental position has been invoked as a potential snowball Earth trigger by increasing surface ...
The Role of Plant CO2 Physiological Forcing in Shaping Future Daily-Scale Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractContinued anthropogenic CO2 emissions are expected to drive widespread changes in precipitation characteristics. Nonetheless, projections of precipitation change vary considerably at the regional scale between ...
