Precipitation Biases Over the Southern Ocean in CMIP6, Reanalyses and Satellite‐Based Products
Abstract A set of gridded, satellite‐based, precipitation products has been used to assess the performance of 46 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) atmospheric‐only simulations and 5 reanalyses over the Southern Ocean (SO) on daily timescales, in terms of total precipitation and variance, frequency and intensity of wet days, and seasonal ...

Synoptic Features Driving the CO2 Sink in the Mediterranean Sea in Winter
Abstract The Mediterranean Sea is a weak sink for the atmospheric CO2 with the October‐March extended winter season characterized by the occurrence of high CO2 sink events. Here, we analyzed state‐of‐the‐art ocean and atmospheric reanalyses and observational data sets to investigate the variability of the winter sink and its relation with synoptic ...

How tropical Pacific surface cooling contributed to accelerated sea ice melt from 2007 to 2012 as ice is thinned by anthropogenic forcing [PDF]
Over the past 40 years the Arctic sea ice minimum in September has declined. The period between 2007 and 2012 showed accelerated melt contributed to the record minima of 2007 and 2012.

ENSO representation in climate models: from CMIP3 to CMIP5
We analyse the ability of CMIP3 and CMIP5 coupled ocean–atmosphere general circulation models (CGCMs) to simulate the tropical Pacific mean state and El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The CMIP5 multi-model ensemble displays an encouraging 30 % reduction of the pervasive cold bias in the western Pacific, but no quantum leap in ENSO performance ...

Abstract Stratospheric sulfate aerosols from tropical volcanic eruptions alter surface air temperatures. Fundamentally, this is due to two different properties of the aerosols: Their ability to reflect incoming solar shortwave radiation, and their ability to absorb terrestrial longwave radiation.

Abstract Assessing local climate change impacts often requires downscaling coarse global climate model (GCM) output to finer resolution. Two main approaches exist: dynamical downscaling using high‐resolution regional climate models, and statistical downscaling based on historical relationships between large‐scale and local variables.

Abstract Weather regimes are widely used in weather prediction, but less often to study climate variability and change. Here, we use a year‐round North American regime classification to identify summertime circulation trends from 1981 to 2024. We find large increases in the frequency, persistence and interannual variability of the Greenland High (GH ...

Abstract Climate models project a weakening of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) under future warming, but how this manifests in the vertical flow structure of individual passageways and its implications for inter‐basin freshwater transport remains uncertain.
