Abstract: his study reviews the mechanisms associated with Antarctic?tropical climate linkages and presents new analyses of the seasonality and spatial patterns of tropical climate signals in the Antarctic for the late 1950s to the ...

Abstract: esterly wind trends at 850 hPa over the Southern Ocean during 1979?2011 exhibit strong regional and seasonal asymmetries. On an annual basis, trends in the Pacific sector (40°?60°S, 70°?160°W) are 3 times larger than ...

Abstract: preindustrial control run and an ensemble of twentieth-century integrations of the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4), are evaluated for Antarctic sea ice climatology, modes of variability, trends, and ...

Abstract: he Antarctic continent contains the majority of the global ice volume and plays an important role in a changing climate. The nature and causes of Antarctic climate variability are, however, poorly understood beyond interannual ...

Abstract: Recent Antarctic climate variability on month-to-month to interannual time scales is assessed through joint analysis of surface temperatures from satellite thermal infrared observations (TIR) and passive microwave brightness ...
