RISThe Role of Moist Intrusions in Winter Arctic Warming and Sea Ice Decline
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper examines the trajectories followed by intense intrusions of moist air into the Arctic polar region during autumn and winter and their impact on local temperature and sea ice concentration. It is found that the ...
Representation of Arctic Moist Intrusions in CMIP5 Models and Implications for Winter Climate Biases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper examines the wintertime northward moisture flux at 70°N from 1981?2005 in 31 of the CMIP5 models compared with the ERA-Interim reanalysis product. The models? total zonally integrated northward moisture flux is ...
On the Drivers of Wintertime Temperature Extremes in the High Arctic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe salient features and drivers of wintertime warm and cold spells in the high Arctic are investigated. The analysis is based on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts interim reanalysis dataset. ...
Climatologically Significant Effects of Some Approximations in the Bulk Parameterizations of Turbulent Air–Sea Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper quantifies the impacts of approximations and assumptions in the parameterization of bulk formulas on the exchange of momentum, heat, and freshwater computed between the ocean and atmosphere. An ensemble of ...
