RISThe Influence of Tropical Deforestation on the Northern Hemisphere Climate by Atmospheric Teleconnections
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerous studies have identified the regional-scale climate response to tropical deforestation through changes to water, energy, and momentum fluxes between the land surface and the atmosphere. There has been little research, ...
The Relationship between the Pacific–North American Teleconnection Pattern, the Great Plains Low-Level Jet, and North Central U.S. Heavy Rainfall Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study demonstrates the relationship between the Pacific?North American (PNA) teleconnection pattern and the Great Plains low-level jet (GPLLJ). The negative phase of the PNA, which is associated with lower heights over ...
Modeling the Atmospheric Response to Irrigation in the Great Plains. Part I: General Impacts on Precipitation and the Energy Budget
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ince World War II, the expansion of irrigation throughout the Great Plains has resulted in a significant decline in the water table of the Ogallala Aquifer, threatening its long-term sustainability. The addition of ...
Modeling the Atmospheric Response to Irrigation in the Great Plains. Part II: The Precipitation of Irrigated Water and Changes in Precipitation Recycling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he rapid expansion of irrigation in the Great Plains since World War II has resulted in significant water table declines, threatening the long-term sustainability of the Ogallala Aquifer. As discussed in Part I of this ...
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 ...
Drought and Deforestation: Has Land Cover Change Influenced Recent Precipitation Extremes in the Amazon?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xpansion of agricultural lands and inherent variability of climate can influence the water cycle in the Amazon basin, impacting numerous ecosystem services. However, these two influences do not work independently of each ...
Different Modes of Variability over the Tasman Sea: Implications for Regional Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new approach is used to detect atmospheric teleconnections without being bound by orthogonality (such as empirical orthogonal functions). This method employs negative correlations in a global dataset to detect potential ...
