Abstract: oleward migration of the latitudinal edge of the tropics of 0.25°?3.0° decade?1 has been reported in several recent studies based on satellite and radiosonde data and reanalysis output covering the past ~30 yr. The goal ...

Abstract: easonally and vertically resolved changes in the strength of the Brewer?Dobson circulation (BDC) were inferred using temperatures measured by the Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU), Stratospheric Sounding Unit (SSU), and ...

Abstract: The term Walker Circulation is used to refer to the zonal overturning across the equatorial Pacific driven by enhanced convection over the Indonesian region. In this work, an attempt is made to simulate the Walker Circulation ...

Abstract: revious studies have shown that lower-stratosphere temperatures display a near-perfect cancellation between tropical and extratropical latitudes on both annual and interannual time scales. The out-of-phase relationship ...

Abstract: Interannual variations of stratospheric water vapor over 1992?2003 are studied using Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) satellite measurements. Interannual anomalies in water vapor with an approximate 2-yr periodicity ...

Abstract: ost global circulation models and climate?chemistry models forced with increasing greenhouse gases predict a strengthening of the Brewer?Dobson circulation (BDC) in the twenty-first century, and some of them claim that ...

Abstract: pheric trace gas measurement program using balloon-based sonde and AirCore sampler techniques is proposed as a way to monitor the strength of the stratospheric mean meridional or Brewer?Dobson circulation. Modeling work ...

Abstract: Previous studies have documented a poleward shift in the subsiding branches of Earth?s Hadley circulation since 1979 but have disagreed on the causes of these observed changes and the ability of global climate models to ...
