Sea ice loss of the Barents-Kara Sea enhances the winter warming over the Tibetan Plateau

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2022
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is known as one of the most sensitive regions to climate change, and it has experienced accelerated warming in recent decades. However, to what degree the TP warming amplification relates to remote forcing such as sea ice loss in

On the Dynamics and Water Mass Transformation of a Boundary Current Connecting Alpha and Beta Oceans [PDF]

, 2018
A subpolar marginal sea, like the Nordic seas, is a transition zone between the temperature-stratified subtropics (the alpha ocean) and the salinity-stratified polar regions (the beta ocean).

The amplifying influence of increased ocean stratification on a future year without a summer

Nature Communications, 2017
The 1815 eruption of Mt. Tambora caused one of the strongest climate perturbations in the modern record; the 1816 year without a summer. Here, the authors show that climate change, through its impact on ocean stratification, strengthens the surface ...

Anthropogenic forcing changes coastal tropical cyclone frequency

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
It remains a mystery if and how anthropogenic climate change has altered the global tropical cyclone (TC) activities, mainly due to short reliable TC observations and climate internal variabilities.

Reduction in Near‐Surface Wind Speeds With Increasing CO2 May Worsen Winter Air Quality in the Indo‐Gangetic Plain

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
We analyze the relationship between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and meteorology in winter in the Indo‐Gangetic Plain (IGP). We find that the concentration of PM2.5 exhibits similar increase with decreasing surface wind speed in 15 out of 18 cities ...

An idealized description for the diurnal cycle of the dry atmospheric boundary layer [PDF]

, 2019
We present a conceptual model for the diurnal cycle of the dry atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). It may serve as a framework for future numerical studies on the transitional dynamics that characterize the ABL over land. The conceptual model enables us to

Exceptional multi-year prediction skill of the Kuroshio Extension in the CESM high-resolution decadal prediction system

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
The Kuroshio Extension (KE) has far-reaching influences on climate as well as on local marine ecosystems. Thus, skillful multi-year to decadal prediction of the KE state and understanding sources of skill are valuable.

Modeling European hot spells using extreme value analysis

, 2014
Atmospheric blocking in mainland Europe is often cited as the cause of extremely high temperatures lasting several days. By definition, extreme temperatures are rare, and yet the theory of extreme value statistics has seldom been applied to quantify the ...

Applying a Mesoscale Atmospheric Model to Svalbard Glaciers [PDF]

, 2012
The mesoscale atmospheric model WRF is used over three Svalbard glaciers. The simulations are done with a setup of the model corresponding to the state-of-the-art model for polar conditions, Polar WRF, and it was validated using surface observations. The

Simulated Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Freezing and Thawing Fronts in CAS‐FGOALS‐g3

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
In this study, we implement a new frozen‐soil parameterization scheme into the climate system model CAS‐FGOALS‐g3 to investigate the dynamic changes of freezing and thawing fronts and the effects arising from thermal processes and climate.
