RISImpact of the Montreal Protocol on Antarctic Surface Mass Balance and Implications for Global Sea Level Rise
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, adopted in 1987, is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out emissions of chlorofluorocarbons and other ozone-depleting ...
Do Models and Observations Disagree on the Rainfall Response to Global Warming?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recently analyzed satellite-derived global precipitation datasets from 1987 to 2006 indicate an increase in global-mean precipitation of 1.1%?1.4% decade?1. This trend corresponds to a hydrological sensitivity (HS) of 7% ...
Aerosol versus Greenhouse Gas Effects on Tropical Cyclone Potential Intensity and the Hydrologic Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAerosol cooling reduces tropical cyclone (TC) potential intensity (PI) more strongly, by about a factor of 2 per degree of sea surface temperature change, than greenhouse gas warming increases it. This study analyzes ...
No Surface Cooling over Antarctica from the Negative Greenhouse Effect Associated with Instantaneous Quadrupling of CO2 Concentrations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractOver the highest elevations of Antarctica, during many months of the year, air near the surface is colder than in much of the overlying atmosphere. This unique feature of the Antarctic atmosphere has been shown to ...
The Antarctic Atmospheric Energy Budget. Part I: Climatology and Intraseasonal-to-Interannual Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors present a new, observationally based estimate of the atmospheric energy budget for the Antarctic polar cap (the region poleward of 70°S). This energy budget is constructed using state-of-the-art reanalysis ...
The Antarctic Atmospheric Energy Budget. Part II: The Effect of Ozone Depletion and its Projected Recovery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study the authors continue their investigation of the atmospheric energy budget of the Antarctic polar cap (the region poleward of 70°S) using integrations of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model from the ...
How Well Do the CMIP5 Models Simulate the Antarctic Atmospheric Energy Budget?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors evaluate 23 coupled atmosphere?ocean general circulation models from phase 5 of CMIP (CMIP5) in terms of their ability to simulate the observed climatological mean energy budget of the Antarctic atmosphere. While ...
Temperature and Precipitation Extremes in the United States: Quantifying the Responses to Anthropogenic Aerosols and Greenhouse Gases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in extreme temperatures, heat waves, and heavy rainfall events have adverse effects on human health, air quality, and water resources. With aerosol-only (AER) and greenhouse gas?only (GHG) simulations from 1860 to ...
