The influence of Arctic amplification on mid-latitude summer circulation. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2018
AbstractAccelerated warming in the Arctic, as compared to the rest of the globe, might have profound impacts on mid-latitude weather. Most studies analyzing Arctic links to mid-latitude weather focused on winter, yet recent summers have seen strong reductions in sea-ice extent and snow cover, a weakened equator-to-pole thermal gradient and associated ...

Enhanced Asian warming increases Arctic amplification

Environmental Research Letters, 2023
The Arctic has been experiencing prominent warming amplification. However, despite anthropogenic emissions and oceanic variability, whether Arctic amplification has a connection with land in the lower latitudes remains unknown.

Problems encountered when defining Arctic amplification as a ratio. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2016
AbstractIn climate change science the term ‘Arctic amplification’ has become synonymous with an estimation of the ratio of a change in Arctic temperatures compared with a broader reference change under the same period, usually in global temperatures.

Arctic Amplification Response to Individual Climate Drivers [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2019
AbstractThe Arctic is experiencing rapid climate change in response to changes in greenhouse gases, aerosols, and other climate drivers. Emission changes in general, as well as geographical shifts in emissions and transport pathways of short‐lived climate forcers, make it necessary to understand the influence of each climate driver on the Arctic.

Arctic Amplification of marine heatwaves under global warming. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) and total heat exposures (THEs), extreme warming events occurring across the global oceans, seriously threaten marine ecosystems and coastal communities as the climate warms. However, future changes in MHWs and THEs in the Arctic Ocean, where unique marine ecosystems are present, are still unclear.

Arctic greening can cause earlier seasonality of Arctic amplification [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2015
AbstractAs global temperatures rise, vegetation types will change, particularly in the northern high latitudes. Under a warming scenario, shrub and grasslands over the Arctic are expected to shift to boreal forests. This study compares the impact of such a change in Arctic vegetation type with that of CO2 doubling on the seasonality of Arctic warming ...

The emergence of surface-based Arctic amplification [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2009
Rises in surface and lower troposphere air temperatures through the 21st century are projected to be especially pronounced over the Arctic Ocean during the cold season.

Cold‐Season Arctic Amplification Driven by Arctic Ocean‐Mediated Seasonal Energy Transfer

Earth's Future, 2021
The Arctic warming response to greenhouse gas forcing is substantially greater than the rest of the globe. It has been suggested that this phenomenon, commonly referred to as Arctic amplification, and its peak in boreal fall and winter result primarily ...

Contribution of sea ice loss to Arctic amplification [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2010
Atmospheric climate models are subjected to the observed sea ice conditions during 2007 to estimate the regionality, seasonality, and vertical pattern of temperature responses to recent Arctic sea ice loss. It is shown that anomalous sea ice conditions accounted for virtually all of the estimated Arctic amplification in surface‐based warming over the ...

The Arctic Amplification and Its Impact: A Synthesis through Satellite Observations

Remote Sensing, 2023
Arctic climate change has already resulted in amplified and accelerated regional warming, or the Arctic amplification. Satellite observations have captured this climate phenomenon in its development and in sufficient spatial details.
