On the Leading Patterns of Northern Hemisphere Sea Level Pressure Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he leading patterns of variability of the monthly mean Northern Hemisphere (NH) sea level pressure (SLP) field, as derived from empirical orthogonal teleconnection (EOT) analysis of a 93-yr (1920?2012) record of NOAA?CIRES ...
Dynamical Adjustment of the Northern Hemisphere Surface Air Temperature Field: Methodology and Application to Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he influence of atmospheric circulation changes reflected in spontaneously occurring sea level pressure (SLP) anomalies upon surface air temperature (SAT) variability and trends is investigated using partial least squares ...
Dense Network Observations of the Twin Cities Canopy-Layer Urban Heat Island
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ata from a dense urban meteorological network (UMN) are analyzed, revealing the spatial heterogeneity and temporal variability of the Twin Cities (Minneapolis?St. Paul, Minnesota) canopy-layer urban heat island (UHI). Data ...
Projecting North American Climate over the Next 50 Years: Uncertainty due to Internal Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study highlights the relative importance of internally generated versus externally forced climate trends over the next 50 yr (2010?60) at local and regional scales over North America in two global coupled model ensembles. ...
Choosing Carbon Mitigation Strategies Using Ethical Deliberation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions change earth?s climate by altering the planet?s radiative balance. An important first step in mitigation of climate change is to reduce annual increases in these emissions. However, ...
