Extratropical cyclone statistics during the last millennium and the 21st century [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2018
Extratropical cyclones in winter and their characteristics are investigated in depth for the Atlantic European region, as they are responsible for a significant part of the rainfall and extreme wind and/or precipitation-induced hazards.

Uncertainties in cloud-radiative heating within an idealized extratropical cyclone [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Cloud-radiative heating (CRH) within the atmosphere affects the dynamics and predictability of extratropical cyclones. However, CRH is uncertain in numerical weather prediction and climate models, and this could affect model predictions of extratropical ...

Characteristics of Tropical Cyclone Outer Size and Structure Associated With Extratropical Transition

Geophysical Research Letters
There is a lack of consensus on how tropical cyclone outer winds may change, if at all, due to extratropical transition. Hence, this study examines changes in North Atlantic tropical cyclone outer size and structure using a large, multidecadal sample of ...

Extratropical Cyclones: A Century of Research on Meteorology’s Centerpiece [PDF]

Meteorological Monographs, 2019
AbstractThe year 1919 was important in meteorology, not only because it was the year that the American Meteorological Society was founded, but also for two other reasons. One of the foundational papers in extratropical cyclone structure by Jakob Bjerknes was published in 1919, leading to what is now known as the Norwegian cyclone model. Also that year,

Lifecycle‐Type Matters for Extratropical Cyclone Precipitation Production

Geophysical Research Letters
In the midlatitudes, extratropical cyclones produce the majority of winter precipitation. Precipitation rates and accumulation depend strongly on both the cyclone intensity and the environmental moisture amount.

Extratropical Cyclone Precipitation Life Cycles: A Satellite‐Based Analysis

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Although extratropical cyclones are the most common midlatitude storms, the relationship between their precipitation life cycle and dynamical strength life cycle has not been thoroughly analyzed.

Phase transitions between tropical, subtropical, and extratropical cyclones: A review from IWTC-10

Tropical Cyclone Research and Review, 2023
This review, which was adapted from a Tenth International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC-10) report, discusses research findings and operational practices relevant to cyclone types and phase transitions (extratropical, subtropical, and tropical ...

Cloud feedbacks in extratropical cyclones: insight from long-term satellite data and high-resolution global simulations [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
A negative extratropical shortwave cloud feedback driven by changes in cloud optical depth is a feature of global climate models (GCMs). A robust positive trend in observed liquid water path (LWP) over the last two decades across the warming Southern ...

Northern Hemisphere Extratropical Cyclone Activity in the Twentieth Century Reanalysis Version 3 (20CRv3) and Its Relationship with Continental Extreme Temperatures

Atmosphere, 2022
In this study, we detect and track extratropical cyclones using 6-hourly mean sea level pressure data taken from the Twentieth Century Reanalysis version 3 (20CRv3) over the period 1951–2015 and compare them with those in the Interim and fifth generation

Moisture analysis of an extratropical cyclone [PDF]

Archiv für Meteorologie, Geophysik und Bioklimatologie Serie A, 1969
The atmospheric water balance and precipitation regime of a moving cyclone are described. The coordinate system chosen is one that moves with the traveling storm system. The computation of the atmospheric water balance is done to yield the parameter precipitation minus evaporation as a residual.
