The Stability of Mars’s Annular Polar Vortex
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Martian polar atmosphere is known to have a persistent local minimum in potential vorticity (PV) near the winter pole, with a region of high PV encircling it. This finding is surprising, since an isolated band of PV is ...
Transient Response of the Southern Ocean to Changing Ozone: Regional Responses and Physical Mechanisms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe impact of changing ozone on the climate of the Southern Ocean is evaluated using an ensemble of coupled climate model simulations. By imposing a step change from 1860 to 2000 conditions, response functions ...
Robustness of the Simulated Tropospheric Response to Ozone Depletion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractRecent studies have shown large intermodel differences in the magnitude of the simulated response of the Southern Hemisphere tropospheric circulation to ozone depletion. This inconsistency may be a result of different ...
Skillful Seasonal Prediction of the Southern Annular Mode and Antarctic Ozone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing a set of seasonal hindcast simulations produced by the Met Office Global Seasonal Forecast System, version 5 (GloSea5), significant predictability of the southern annular mode (SAM) is demonstrated during the austral ...
