Limits on the Extent of the Solsticial Hadley Cell: The Role of Planetary Rotation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe role of planetary rotation in limiting the extent of the cross-equatorial solsticial Hadley cell (SHC) is investigated using idealized simulations with an aquaplanet general circulation model run under ...
Exploring the Role of Eddy Momentum Fluxes in Determining the Characteristics of the Equinoctial Hadley Circulation: Fixed-SST Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he influence of eddy momentum fluxes on the equinoctial Hadley circulation is explored using idealized simulations on an equatorial beta plane in which the sea surface temperature (SST) distribution is fixed. By comparing ...
Eddy Influences on the Strength of the Hadley Circulation: Dynamic and Thermodynamic Perspectives
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he strength of the equinoctial Hadley circulation (HC) is investigated in idealized simulations conducted on an equatorial beta plane in which the zonal width of the domain is varied to either permit or suppress large-scale ...
Upward Shift of the Atmospheric General Circulation under Global Warming: Theory and Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: any features of the general circulation of the atmosphere shift upward in response to warming in simulations of climate change with both general circulation models (GCMs) and cloud-system-resolving models. The importance ...
Exploring the Symmetries of Pantropical Connections between the Tropical Atlantic and Pacific Basins
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Exploring the Asymmetries of Pan-Tropical Connections from the Tropical Indian to the Pacific Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Extratropical Cyclones in Idealized Simulations of Changed Climates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: yclones are a key element of extratropical weather and frequently lead to extreme events like wind storms and heavy precipitation. Understanding potential changes of cyclone frequency and intensity is thus essential for a ...
The Relative Humidity in an Isentropic Advection–Condensation Model: Limited Poleward Influence and Properties of Subtropical Minima
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n idealized model of advection and condensation of water vapor is considered as a representation of processes influencing the humidity distribution along isentropic surfaces in the free troposphere. Results are presented ...
